Hey Fellas,

If you guys need something new to listen to in the shop, on the way to work, or in the rig headed to the track; check out my new Podcast, The Fast Brackets Podcast.

I am going to highlight the Cars and Stars of Top Sportsman and Top Dragster racing on a weekly basis.

https://soundcloud.com/rex-simmermaker/lots-of-firsts

Above is the link to the first episode.
Episode #2 should be up soon, and I hope to have the podcast released on iTunes, and wherever you listen to your podcasts up soon.

Rich Schaefer, the Top Sportsman and Top Dragster Sportsman Council Advocate for the NHRA (also the D2 Director) was on to discuss the 6.10 index adjustment and to talk about adding both classes to the US NATIONALS.

Kellan Farmer from Racetech Racecars was on to discuss his win in the PDRA Top Dragster Elite class at Galot.

Both were GREAT interviews, and I think episode #2 is even better.
(this is my first try at podcasting, so it may take me a few weeks to get the hang of it)

Let me know what you think at:
@FastBrackets on Twitter
The Fast Brackets Podcast on Facebook
or email me at FastBrackets@outlook.com

I am having a bunch of fun with it already and the NHRA, PDRA and MWPMS have been super supportive of anything I have asked for (maybe more than I expected)

I am looking forward to discussing these classes each week, and I hope you enjoy the discussion.
Let me know if you want to get on and discuss your race program or a hot topic!

Thanks,
Rex
