Reviews

4.4 out of 5 stars from 28 ratings
  • Below average most of the time.

    When Tapley is willing to share some of his inside information the show can be okay. His knowledge of the northeast racing scene is untouched. John Williams as host? I’ll let you make your own decision Don’t be misled, the other host have no information or personal insight they can offer. Just sitting around and playing armchair quarterback to the weeks racing.

    If you love Ryan Preece and standing on a soapbox about safety than this podcast is perfect for you.

  • Amateur Hour

    Kind of show up when they feel like it. No consistency of appearance and their distributor is a disaster. Please stop with Wes Weed. He can't really be that stupid. Steve Roop is also a dope. Now they've moved to more ads and less content, which only means we get to hear the host clicking his pen less.

  • Incredibly inaccurate

    These guys are so lost I had to unsubscribe after i listened to them make one uneducated guess after another about the Nascar Charter. Then they went on to make one inaccurate statement after another about the Haans Device. If you're going to have a show and make statements, at least google the subject before you get on the air and prove how little you know.

    The Charter was created after Nascar Darling Michael Waltrip lost all his sponsors when his team got caught cheating - remember, they ha... more

In The Pits 12-15-25 with Spencer Scott Jackson John
Q: Are there other manufacturers that will be looking to take advantage of possibly getting involved in NASCAR?
It's unlikely that additional manufacturers will join, as the industry can't afford to have more competing for charters.

Q: How much awareness does someone like Austin Terrace or anyone in this situation know about what is happening to the engine as it is happening?
Austin Terrace may not be fully aware of engine issues as they arise, as it's primarily the responsibility of the engine builders.
