Hey folks, I will use this thread to update and provide links to the weekly shows, information, polls etc, for the Sportsman Drag Racing Podcast with Luke Bogacki and Jared Pennington.

I will start off with providing a link to this weeks poll questions to wrap up 2017 making our "Best of" picks:

Any thoughts, critiques, questions PM me here, or find us on Facebook, and message us there.

I'd like to say that I really look forward to each week and something to listen to that isn't the same music over and over. The main thing I listen for is what Luke calls "inside baseball" where the guys go in depth round by round what they were thinking and why they made decisions they did based on each situation. I appreciate the situational plays and strategies and hearing the experienced views from the shows hosts and guests. I wish there was more of that, especially from some of the amazing guests they have. Even on a losing event, I'd like to hear some more round by round personal recaps myself of what went wrong and why things went a certain way. Keep up the good work, I'm looking forward to 2018. I listen every Wednesday at noon Great job in 2017, keep up the good work guys.

Thanks for the kind words Ryan. Thank you for listening.

This weeks episode is up, its a 2017 in review episode where we crown the Sportsman Drag Racing Podcast Driver of the year, among other "Best of's"

I like the hold deal , makes the hour plus a little more bearable. Sometime I'll listen breaking the show up so to make it last longer. I think you need to make JJ and inside reporter, Give him a monthly topic him to do. Happy Holidays to the show, Special thanks go out to Mark the unsung hero who make you guys sound like you been doing this for years....Hahaha

I appreciate the kind comments, I am a very small piece to the puzzle. Glad you enjoy the show!

We appreciate you guys listening. Luke and I are having a good time with it. Who wouldn't enjoy sitting around, talking about (and to) the stars of sportsman racing?

Mark has been a WONDERFUL addition to the show, and his role is growing daily. It is very cool, having him involved.

We do need a little more JJ in the show, but I might be a little biased too

Solid last 2 episodes.

Luke always used to mention "every week of the calendar year" until just a couple weeks ago. What's with that?

Just kidding! Love the show and have a Merry Christmas!

Thank you Tony! We made it over a year, without a week off. Luke must be in the Christmas spirit . Have a Merry Christmas as well sir.

I'm just trying to figure out how to be a guest. I obviously ain't gonna win a race, but I've taken you guys world wide multiple times. LOL

Just kidding of course. The shows are always good and I appreciate them while traveling.

I've listened to every single show. I enjoy it! I really liked the shout out on the podcast a few weeks ago as well.

I've enjoyed listening to the show every week.

We appreciate the positive feedback guys. Thank you for listening.

Mikey, we need to make you the SDRP roaming reporter . I bet it would be a fun segment.

This weeks podcast is sure to get some attention. The guys reveal the Sportsman Drag Racing Podcast Top 25 list! Check it out here: Top 25

WHEW! I have to say it was an honor to put my list on paper and have it included. I have to say I had 5 racers I listed not make the list although the 5 that did, that I didn't have, I certainly considered but just didn't make the final cut given certain reasons.

What a great look at our talent. When you start working backwards 20 on down get's real hard to single out the final 5.

A great listen and perspective on our sport.

Thanks for putting it together fellas.

SL...

Thanks for including me as well. Much appreciated! It's definitely an "any given day" situation these days, and it's hard to argue with any of the results, or the order.

I'd like to see them do one for bottom bulb racing as well. I actually had several bottom bulbers on my list. There are guys that not only "can" win top bulb events off the bottom, but have actually done so. There's more than one bottom bulber that have even won a top bulb season championship off the bottom!

This episode was a real treat for Jed & Luke, as they got to sit down for a lengthy interview with recent NHRA World Champion and sportsman racing icon, David Rampy. In his interview, Rampy talked about everything from his Alabama roots to the intricacies of Competition Eliminator; his racing mentor, his team, and his drive to continue earning his living within sportsman competition. It’s one you don’t want to miss!

Awesome Podcast...Look forward to it every week! Have listened to a few of the episodes two or three times. Also thought the Top 25 was great....after looking at the list of racers who received votes, if you polled them, and followed the same format, as in not voting for themselves, it may shift a little...but probably not as much as people would think.

Last, but not least, Love the interviews, and especially the "rapid fire" closing. Noticed on the Verdi interview, you guys missed those questions with him...Get him back on for the five questions.

Sorry folks, its been a really busy week, I'm a few days behind getting the DRR post up. CDL/Towing talk this week on the podcast!

Some of the most discussed - and often most avoided - questions in the world of sportsman drag racing swirl around the issue of Commercial Vehicle mandates and the DOT laws as they apply to racers. In this episode, Luke & Jed do their best to get to the bottom of it, with the help of two highly respected industry professionals: Joe Fisher (Racing RV’s), and John Dibartolomeo (Drag Racing Edge). Joe and John help shed some light on towing and CDL requirements for our racing operations.
