Shownotes

Dare we say...another jam-packed episode. We have a lot to cover in this week’s episode. Starting with life happenings (highs and lows) for our Let’s Go Racing Family and how it impacted how we experienced racing the past 3 weeks. We discuss the Round of 12 (Las Vegas Motor Speedway, Talladega Superspeedway, and Charlotte Motor Speedway) and preview the Round of 8.  

This episode is being released on the last day of National Hispanic Heritage Month (September 15 - October 15), which celebrates the achievements and contributions of Hispanic and Latinx culture in America. To commemorate this month one last time, we interviewed NASCAR Marketing Communications Manager, Marielkis Salazar, who focuses her work on multicultural. Why is representation so important?
