The Wes Buck Show – Episode 406
Buckle up, because Episode 406 of The Wes Buck Show is a heater. We’ve got a full lineup of heavy hitters joining the program this week, and we’re talking about some of the biggest stories in the game right now.
First up, the man at the center of the storm, Richard Freeman. Elite Motorsports is on fire after announcing Tony Stewart is joining the team, R+L Carriers is coming aboard, and a new crew chief is stepping in to shake things up. It’s a massive power move from Freeman and company, and we’re getting the inside story straight from the man himself.
Then we’re welcoming in Mike Finnegan, one of the most recognizable voices in motorsports and a true YouTube icon. From Roadkill to Finnegan’s Garage to the drag-and-drive world, the dude has seen it all. We’re picking his brain about what’s happening in the scene right now, where drag-and-drive is headed, and what’s got him fired up in 2025.
And to wrap it up, we’re catching up with Chase Lautenbach, co-owner and founder of Streetcar Takeover. Chase and his team are keeping the streetcar movement rolling strong, with big events on deck for next year. The grassroots side of drag racing has never been hotter, and Streetcar Takeover is right in the middle of it.
As always, it’s real talk about the sport we love, the cars, the people, and the passion that make drag racing the wildest show on earth.
