Treated like VIPs at Daytona for the Regular Season Finale

What a weekend for the Let’s Go Racing Family!?! Not only did we get to watch the summer night race at the World Center of Racing, Daytona International Speedway, our family was treated like VIPs before and during the race. After the checkered flag waved, it was a Team Penske driver that solidified his place as a Championship favorite...but probably not the one you were thinking about.

We talk about how our special race experience began with a tv sports show interview and then later found ourselves high atop Daytona, talking NASCAR and our Podcast with Brandon Marshall AND the President of NASCAR. Finally, we look forward to next week’s race at Darlington Raceway, Round 1 of the NASCAR Chase for the Championship.

About the Podcast

Let's Go Racing Family Podcast
A family podcast dedicated to our view of life through the lens of racing and NASCAR.
The Let's Go Racing Family Podcast is about our love of NASCAR, travel, and just being a family. Our family includes Mom, Dad, and our three boys (Sebastian - 18 yrs old, Giovanni - 15 yrs old, and Johann - 10 yrs old).

We thought a podcast would be cool way for us to share our own opinions and tell our own stories.

We have different show formats that will alternate throughout the season (Race Recaps and Let's Go Racing Family Xtras). Race Recap episodes will feature our family discussing story lines from previous races. The Xtra episodes, will feature more variety segments, such as "6 Degrees of NASCAR - connecting pop-culture to NASCAR in less than 6 degrees of separation" or "Racing Through Life." Every weekly episode, regardless of format, will include Race Picks - where our family make our picks for who we think will win the Cup Series race that weekend.

This is a new adventure...so join us as we explore the world of podcasting and racing.
