Live from Midtown Tavern, it's another jam-packed episode of Track Talk! Host Jason Berg dishes up a hearty helping of dirt track news, behind-the-scenes stories, and guest interviews—plus a whole lot of mac and cheese (seriously, it's $3 off!). Despite some rainouts, the racing scene is heating up, and Jason brings in two track promoters—Nolan Olmstead from Devil’s Lake Speedway and Mike Hendrickson from Cheyenne Speedway—to talk shop, upcoming events, and the not-so-glamorous side of running a racetrack.
🔥 Whether you're a late model lover, sprint car junkie, or just here for the beer specials, this one’s for you.
