Thunder Valley Playoff Racing

The best way to describe this episode is that it’s jam-packed! We cover the last 2 races of Playoff Round #1 (Richmond and Bristol) and preview Round #2 with our #RacePicks for Las Vegas Motor Speedway (Sept. 26). We also talk about our exciting NASCAR Racing Experience, where the entire family got to live the dream of racing around the high banks of the Daytona International Speedway. The boys each rode around with a professional driver at speeds of 170+ and both mom and dad had the chance to drive a stock car - so who was faster? You’ll have to listen to find out. 

With the release of the 2022 NASCAR Cup Series race schedule, we get a chance to preview next season and the tracks we are most excited to watch racing next year.

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.
