Garage Heroes In Training

An amateur endurance auto racing team hoping to show everyone that they too can participate in performance driving or racing. We are a relatively new team and learning right along with you. Our assumption is that you know very little to nothing about the sport but are interested in learning to drive better and eventually maybe even race in a local event of interest. We will cover all forms of racing and hope to be entertaining as well as educational.

DwD 0551: Arrive and Drive – The Hardcore Way Taking a note from the Mighty Car Mods YouTube channel, we take a stab at what we would do for a heroic arrive and drive. On their episode they entered a 24 hour endurance race in another country by building their race car from scratch after they arrived. We decided that sounded like a challenge, so we begin planning how we would do the same. Did we miss something? Do you have a better suggestion? Please let us know. A link to the episode is:

GHiT 0547: Towing and Trailering for Racing-Part 1 While we love almost everything about racing, one thing that is at best a necessary evil is towing. When we started, we knew nothing. If you look at our past towing exploits, we prove that over and over. Besides being expensive, towing errors can be dangerous. This is part one of the episode we needed. We start off with the tow vehicle itself and then start to go into the varieties and needs of the trailer in this part 1 of two(?), still tbd
