Michael Bumgarner & Carson Haislip

Episode 179 is on the scene and we discuss the IHRA Stock Car Inaugural Series event at Pulaski County Motorsports. We spoke to the top three finishers in the Late Model Sportsman event including the first ever series winner in Kyle Dudley.

The SMART Modified Tour powered by Pace-O-Matic crowned a king on Saturday at South Boston. We break down the tour's crown jewel event with comments from King Ron Silk, Stephen Kopcik who finished second for the second straight year and fourth place Jack Baldwin as he describes what being a brand new girl dad is like.

Our Kulwicki Driver Development Underbird Series continues with two more underbirds. 2025 Hickory Motor Speedway Late Model champion Michael Bumgarner and 2025 Late Model Champion at Wake County Speedway champion Carson Haislip joins the show this week. These two North Carolina drivers are taking short track racing by storm and they are looking to make the next steps in their careers while representing the 1992 Winston Cup Series Champion. 

Lee Pulliam took the lead late in Saturday's Late Model Feature at South Boston Speedway and never let loose for his first win in over five years. We spoke to a very emotional Pulliam afterwards as he shared his raw feelings about the win. We also discuss young Conner Weddell's outstanding runner up finish and more about the race.

Tyler Reddick overcame electrical problems, nearly crashing with Chris Buescher and cooling problems to tame the lady in black at Darlington on Sunday. With his fourth win in six races, we discuss the big time company that puts him in. The race was the first with the lower downforce, softer tire compound and lower aero package and we discussed how this affected the race on Sunday. We address Joey Logano's awful day, lack of Hendrick Cars near the front, another solid day from RFK racing which saw all three cars run 1-2-3. 

The zMAX CARS Tour returns to action this weekend at Wake County Speedway. We give you the scoop on who we think may  have the advantage heading into this weekend's second event of the season and also discuss how the fifty lap extension compared to the original advertised distance will impact the race. 

We preview all the action from Martinsville Speedway, dubs, short track spotlight and much more this week on DLN!!
