where I felt, I'm being honest, even though I was better for sure at an open wheel car in

form of the one, I felt more comfortable in the NASCAR way because it's much more grassroots,

just the core type racer that just wants to get out there every weekend and run laps.

It was just in the form of running in circles.

Hey, everybody, I am your host.

I am Ted King and welcome to another edition of King of the Ride podcast.

Scott Speed, professional car racer, professional car racer across a whole host of disciplines

is our guest on today's show.

I need to preface that my car racing knowledge is meager at best.

But truth be told, I think my lack of experience on the topic, just now naive I am about car racing knowledge is meager at best but truth be told i think my lack of experience on

the topic just now naive i am about car racing makes for a much more enjoyable conversation look

i can talk to cyclists tell him blue in the face about the benefits of pumping 32c tires up to

you know just exactly 58 psi and how nice it is to go for a rip on some loamy sweet

mixed terrain. But I have even more fun engaging with folks who don't know what 32C tires are

in the first place. So in order to do my homework leading in this conversation with Scott,

I reached out to a couple friends far more knowledgeable than I on the topic of autosports.

And just by mentioning his name, they were floored.

They were excited for this conversation.

The first word out of their mouths every time was talent.

Scott Speed is an incredibly talented car racer.

I've clearly gathered that punching your foot to the floor is not what makes a champion race car driver.

It's a lifetime sport sport just like cycling.
