F-R Racing's Garage Talk
Erik and D.J. are back with another episode of F-R Racing's Garage Talk! In this week's episode, we recap the Rolex 24 weekend including the finger heard around the world, a massive accident in the Mazda MX-5 Cup and more! D.J. also digs out his 1990s NASCAR diecast collection and shows off some of his favorite and some of the more obscure sponsors of 1990s NASCAR.
But wait... there's more!
Erik had a meeting last week with a cool potential sponsor. If we can make things work for both sides we're going to have a very cool giveaway here soon. Can't say more now, but know that you'll get the first word of any giveaways, freebies, and other contests through this newsletter.
We have a little more to discuss, so read the full blog post here.
Thanks again for reading and we'll see you on the (virtual) track!
