Reviews

4.7 out of 5 stars from 33 ratings
  • Great show. Poor audio quality.

    I love the show for all of its behind the scenes goodness. I’m a weekly listener.

    That said, for a show under the MRN umbrella, it sure sounds awful a lot of the time. It sounds like there’s no test session with the guests, because guests frequently sound bad, and sometimes makes the segment unlistenable (like the 2/4/26 episode with Chad Knaus). Todd Gordon always sounds good because he’s using an actual microphone close to his mouth, but it sounds like Steve Post is either on speakerphone or... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

MRN Crew Call - 9.30.26 - Miles Stanley
Q: Looking ahead to Las Vegas, what lessons from Kansas are you carrying, and how do you adapt the setup for a 95-degree, high-sun heat race?
Miles discusses adapting the aero balance and tire strategy for heat, and how track temperature and grip changes require a different approach to the surface and groove usage.
MRN Crew Call - 9.30.26 - Miles Stanley
Q: How has just rolling those cars off and going added to the challenge of trying to make progress on the intermediates?
Miles notes that in-race execution and traffic complicate adjustments; teams must choose between racing and tuning, and practice constraints mean fewer opportunities to validate changes.
MRN Crew Call - 9.30.26 - Miles Stanley
Q: Miles, you have a couple of challenges. You've been a crew chief for a year and a half and been on the same driver for just a year and a half. How does that compound when you're trying to overcome something like you have with the intermediates?
The answer focuses on how rolling cars off the hauler, practice limitations, and impound rules make it harder to test changes; it requires balancing race execution with development, and leveraging data from limited practice to guide setup decisions.
MRN Crew Call - 9.9.26 - Ryan Sparks Previews World Wide Technology Raceway
Q: What was different about your first chase race compared to the rest?
Sparks highlighted the challenge of race pace and balance, noting the team was focused on staying competitive after Darlington and aiming to optimize track position and balance for the chase race.
MRN Crew Call - 9.2.26 - Derrick Finley
Q: Hello, Derrick. How are you?
Derrick expresses gratitude for the question and shares that it's an emotional and proud moment after achieving his first Cup win as a Crew Chief, reflecting on the long journey and the team's effort.
