Episode 103 of the Built2 Media Podcast is here, and this week we're joined by one of the most respected and consistent drivers in Midwest dirt track racing—Mike Anderson, driver of the No. 57 WISSOTA Modified.

If you've spent any time around a racetrack in the Upper Midwest, chances are you've seen Mike unloading the car and putting himself in contention by the end of the night. Whether it's a weekly show or one of the biggest paying races of the season, Mike has built a reputation for being one of the toughest competitors in the pit area. Quiet, humble, and incredibly consistent, he's been winning races and earning respect for decades.

We sit down with Mike to talk about:

• How his racing career got started
• The biggest highs and toughest lows throughout the years
• What it takes to stay competitive in one of the toughest Modified divisions around
• The races and moments that stand out the most
• What still motivates him to climb behind the wheel today
• The people who have helped him along the way
• His thoughts on the current state of dirt track racing

Of course, we couldn't let Mike leave without putting him through our famous Two-Minute Questions segment. From random and hilarious questions to getting a glimpse of the man behind the helmet, you'll get to see a side of Mike that fans don't often get to hear.
