7.2 The Insiders Take A Cold Hard Look At The Off-Season

NHRA Insider Podcast

On this episode of the NHRA Insider Podcast powered by Speedmaster, Tony Pedregon and Kevin McKenna join host Brian Lohnes to talk all things off season. The trio get into the day to day shop routine of the teams, the leadership aspects necessary to succeed in this vital part of the year, and how the good teams can make themselves great. Following that they talk about some of the larger stories of the late 2024 and early 2025 time frame, which teams can come out swinging, who is thrashing just to make the first event, and how the drivers can let us more into their particular off-season habits as well. It's a cool and informative discussion about the ways that drag racers thwart Old Man Winter, chase horsepower, and fill their war wagons before the season kicks off in a few short weeks for many. Beat the cold with some good old hot stove drag racing chat!
