  • Best Motorsports Podcast Ever!!!

    The rich dialogue and informative conversations set the HDRR at the top of my playlist.

    A wide array of local, national and international racing guests are interviewed each week by Veteran announcer and racing ace Scott Hammer along side the “Professor” Ron Miller, a legendary racer and chassis builder that helped pioneer Dirt Late Model racing around the world.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Flat Rock/Toledo Champions Paul Pelletier, Ron Allen & Avery Vanderhoof
Q: What's next for you after this season's success?
Vanderhoof talks about continuing to develop his Figure Eight program, possibly branching into Indianapolis-area Figure Eight events, and eventually trying oval racing.
Flat Rock/Toledo Champions Paul Pelletier, Ron Allen & Avery Vanderhoof
Q: What adjustments did you make to adapt to the new pavement at Flat Rock?
Allen describes early difficulties, the smoothing of the surface, and learning to race multi-groove layouts, with tire strategies evolving as the surface aged through the season.
Flat Rock/Toledo Champions Paul Pelletier, Ron Allen & Avery Vanderhoof
Q: How did the championship race unfold going into the final event, and what was the pressure like?
Pelletier explains that pressure wasn't the primary driver; the focus was on the process of racing well and maintaining performance, and they avoided overthinking points, which helped in the final races.
Hall of Fame Mechanic Tommy Sanders Returns & Oakshade Schedule Release
Q: If you could go back and change one thing about sprint car design, what would it be?
I'd push for more driver safety by making seats and harnesses give a little during impact, while keeping overall rigidity; the halo and taller roll cages in NASCAR-like configurations provide a benchmark, but sprint cars need a tailored solution that protects the driver without compromising handling.
2025 Sandusky Speedway Modified Champion Brandon Lemmerman
Q: What does it mean to you to be possibly the last Modified Track Champion at Sandusky?
Brandon called it bittersweet but meaningful, tying his family's long racing legacy to a historic milestone at the track, and expressing pride in being part of a notable era as the chapter potentially closes.
