We're a little late publishing this week due to illnesses in both of our households, but the show must go on!

In this week's episode of F-R Racing's Garage Talk, we take a look at NASCAR weekend at the Roval, possible race manipulation, and did D.J. place another +1200 bet on Joey Logano winning in 2025?

We dive into the deeper conversation about sports betting, the pros and cons of being able to bet in many states via sports apps versus having to go to Vegas or one of the other few places where sports betting was legal in person. It's become oversaturated that gambling and odds have taken over as the stats. Is it ruining the sports we watch?

Finally, we close out the show discussing Oscar Piastri fuming post race and cutting off Zak Brown by disconnecting the radio mid pep talk. Is it possible for McLaren to bottle the drivers championship and let Max catch up and win? We discuss.

After a week off for "Fall Break" we are back with an all new episode of F-R Racing's Garage Talk! On this week's episode D.J. talks about where he was last week, and recaps his visit to the Indianapolis Motor Speedway Museum. The museum re-opened last spring after a major renovation so now that he's visited the old and the new museum, he shares what he thinks.

Next, we move on and discuss the crazy finish to the NASCAR Cup Series race at Kansas that left multiple Toyota drivers upset at each other as Chase Elliott sneaks through and takes the win coming out of turn 4.

Finally, we discuss the rumor started on Reddit this week that Richard Childress was going to announce his retirement this weekend at the Charlotte Roval, but RCR has since come out to deny the rumors. Close it out with a little iRacing talk and the fact that Max Verstappen has not won at Singapore and you have your new episode!

On today's episode of F-R Racing's Garage Talk, we've been largely ignoring the simulated part of motorsports the last several episodes, so we take time today to go through the latest updates during the iRacing 2025 Season 3 update package! New cars, new tracks, updated artwork, and a gigantic file size!

On the second half of the show, we discuss the NASCAR race at Gateway with Denny Hamlin winning. D.J. puts on his tin foil hat and questions why did the broadcast feed cut out right before Denny Hamlin crossed the line and was it related to the fact Denny's lawsuit against NASCAR is getting really ugly? We discuss.

Finally, Max Verstappen returns to the top step of the podium and McLaren are dealing with team orders. While McLaren have more or less clinched the Constructors Championship already, the battle for the Driver championship rages on with drama.

The IndyCar season wrapped up last weekend at Nashville with Josef Newgarden salvaging a bad season with a win. It was his 11th straight season with a win in the IndyCar season. We look back at how the season went, the good, the bad, and how to improve on story telling. What can IndyCar learn from the WWE (no not scripted results).

Next, we move on and discuss the NASCAR weekend from Connor Zilisch's win in Portland, the "shortcut" through turn 1 and 2, and do they need to change the rule? After that we discuss Chase Briscoe winning back to back Southern 500s with two different teams and two different OEMs. It was an incredibly impressive drive as he looks to build momentum at JGR.

Finally, we do a quick recap of the Formula 1 Dutch Grand Prix, Isack Hadjar's impressive drive and first podium finish, to Ferrari and the terrible, horrible, no good, very bad day. Also, did Charles LeClerc cause a surge in the birth rate in Italy as a result of winning at Monza in 2024? We look at the hilarious social media claim.

On this week's episode of F-R Racing's Garage Talk we discuss the release of the NASCAR schedule including interesting choices like the Dover All Star Race, Watkins Glen in May, and Phoenix fall in mid-October. We also look at the return of Chicagoland Speedway and the surprise announcement of the Craftsman Truck Series heading to St Petersburg for a weekend race with IndyCar!

Next, we get into our busy week of racing on the iRacing platform including a challenging and very competitive IndyCar race at Milwaukee, D.J.'s lucky break leading to a podium finish during Bottom Split, and a good finish at an extremely challenging race at Gateway during Wednesday Night Dash.

Finally, we put on our freelance unlicensed lawyer hats and talk about the latest updates in the 23 XI/FRM vs NASCAR anti-trust lawsuit. What's the latest, why is NASCAR going after Michael Jordan and was the schedule release timing a distraction from the latest filing?

Connor Zilisch's fall in victory lane was unfortunately the most talked about part of Watkins Glen weekend at NASCAR. In this week's Garage Talk we look at the fall and ideally how long will it take to recover and drive again with that broken collarbone?

But first, we talk about the return of Wednesday Night Dash and the shocking situation where on a hot and slick track that eats tires like Las Vegas that we ran 70 laps caution free. We take a look at the upcoming season and next week's big challenge taking the cars to Gateway.

Next, we move on and discuss the IndyCar race at Portland including Will Power winning for Penske (and his job on the line), Alex Palou clinching the championship with two races to go and the TV ratings.

Finally, we move on and discuss NASCAR weekend at Watkins Glen including Austin Hill's continued questionable driving, SVG dominating the cup race, and yes, Connor Zilisch breaking his collarbone.
