We wrap up our conversation with Kevin Eacret by getting honest about what it takes to run two Grand Prix hydroplanes with an all-volunteer crew. We talk team roles, race-weekend mindset and what the GP class needs to grow without losing its close-knit culture.

If you haven't heard episodes 194 and 195, I would highly recommend you go back and listen to those before listening to part three.

We pick up our conversation with Kevin Eacret as he explains how a blown gas GP program became a legit threat and how one violent crash changed what could have been a title year. We also dig into Richards Racing’s two-boat approach, the rules that shape engine budgets and why Valleyfield demands a completely different kind of driving.

This is part 2 to my interview with Kevin Eacret. If you have not listened to part 1, I highly encourage you to listen to Episode 194: Kevin Eacret, Part 1 before listening to this episode.

Part 3 will be streaming starting next week on Tuesday, September 1st.

We sit down at Richards Racing headquarters with Kevin Eacret and trace how a Seafair volunteer kid turns into a driver across multiple hydroplane classes, including Unlimited. Kevin shares the behind-the-scenes reality of travel, sponsorship, team building and a Detroit blowover that taught him to stay alert even when he is not flat footed.

This is part 1 of my interview with Kevin Eacret. Look for parts 2 and 3 to be in Episodes 195 and 196 coming out in the following weeks.
