    • 2026 IndyCar Season Preview with Podium Pop Podcast
      Feb 20 2026

      On this week's episode of F-R Racing's Garage Talk we are joined by Gracie and Celine from the ⁨@PodiumPop⁩ Podcast for a special 2026 IndyCar Preview show.

      We kick off the show looking at the driver changes this season including Will Power moving to Andretti, Mick Schumacher driving for RLL, and more! In addition, we look at the schedule including dual weekends with the Craftsman Truck Series at St Petersburg and with the O'Reilly and Cup Series at Phoenix. Does NASCAR and IndyCar need to put aside their differences and work together if they stand a chance to fight off the surging popularity of Formula 1? We also get into the IndyNXT series and how televising the races on FOX show that ladder into IndyCar and development.

      Next, we get into the addition of the race at Phoenix Raceway and the loss of Iowa Speedway. What went wrong with Iowa? A lot. We discuss. A common theme is advertising and promoting events has been a major issue with IndyCar and attendance at the races. What can they do to bring the fans in?

      We also get into the concept of IndyCar storytelling and creating stars in the sport. This is a common topic we've discussed a ton on this show and we look to get Gracie and Celine's take on the matter.

      Thanks again to Gracie and Celine for stopping by and hanging with us!

    • iRacing Race Recaps, Writing a Paper w/ ChatGPT, Daytona 500 Preview
      Feb 13 2026
      On this week's episode of F-R Racing's Garage Talk we official unveil the next step in our "idiot evolution", our cartooned versions of ourselves. FOX isn't going to do it anymore on NASCAR broadcasts, but we will!We start off the show discussing our week of iRacing featuring the first race of the new season of Bottom Split Racing Series at Chicagoland and our P2 and P4 finish. We then move on and discuss our adventure at Talladega on Wednesday Night Dash.Next we get into our off topic segment and talk about memorizing prepositions in school and how the "kids today" are getting in trouble for having ChatGPT write papers for them. We wanted to test it out so we had ChatGPT write a paper for us on the history of coffee mugs. How did the report turn out? You'll have to watch.Finally, we recap qualifying and the Daytona duels coming into this weekend's Daytona 500. Casey Mears snuck his way in with the Garage 66 car and we talk about our predictions for the season with the new playoff/chase format.⏱️⏱️EPISODE CHAPTERS⏱️⏱️:00:00:00 - iRacing Bottom Split Series Recap and Tire Saving Strategies00:06:00 - Avoiding Chaos: Racecraft, Tire Management, and Surviving Overtime Finishes00:12:00 - Understanding iRacing Scoring (or lack of), Cautions, and Post-Race Confusion00:18:00 - Garage Talk Rebrand, League Branding, and Wednesday Night Dash Preview00:24:00 - Wednesday Night Dash Stats, Trivia, and Notable Drivers in the League00:30:00 - History of Coffee Mugs: Let's write a paper with ChatGPT!00:36:00 - Memorization in School, Prepositions, and Education System Reflections00:42:00 - NASCAR Duels Recap, Daytona 500 Memories, and Dale Earnhardt Legacy00:48:00 - Racing Safety Innovations: Safer Barriers, HANS Device, and Driver Protection00:54:00 - 2026 NASCAR Predictions, Indy Racing World Series, and Generational Humor---------⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Bottom Split Racing Series⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ returns February 9, 2026!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Wednesday Night Dash⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ returns January 7, 2026!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Indy Racing World Series⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ returns February 24, 2026!Follow ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠F-R Racing⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ on social media.Affiliate Links: Today's episode is powered by Extreme SimRacing.

    • The Clash, Freedom 250, Random News and Notes | Garage Talk
      Feb 6 2026
      It looked bad for a while, but NASCAR finally got back on track at Bowman Gray Stadium and had "The Clash" and then it looked like Wednesday Night Dash at North Wilkesboro. We discuss. Also congratulations to Ryan Preece on his win and awesome post race victory speech.Next, we unveil Andy Amendola's new book in the Red Racer Book series, "The ABCs of NASCAR Racing". Officially licensed by NASCAR and available for preorder at https://www.redracerbooks.com and Amazon. Get your copy today and add to the fine collection of the Red Racer Books series.We move on to IndyCar and yeah, we're going to address the Freedom 250, but given everyone and their mother has given a political opinion on it this week and the fact we're idiots who you shouldn't get political commentary from, we look at it from an event standpoint. While something like this could be a cool event, we're not hopeful that this is going to work out and we explain the many reasons why. Finally, we discuss some upcoming iRacing events including the return of Bottom Split Racing Series on Monday and the iRacing Indy Racing World Series on February 24th.⏱️⏱️EPISODE CHAPTERS⏱️⏱️:00:00:00 - NASCAR Clash at Bowman Gray: Race Recap and Caution Laps Discussion00:06:27 - Ryan Preece's Victory, NASCAR Swearing Controversy, and Camping at Races00:12:01 - Red Racer Books: New NASCAR Kids Book and Author Insights00:17:45 - IndyCar Freedom 250 in Washington DC: Logistics, Security, and Event Concerns00:23:50 - Street Racing History: Baltimore, Cleveland, and Unique Track Events00:30:10 - Formula 1 Season Preview: Max Verstappen, Ferrari, and Mercedes Predictions00:36:18 - iRacing Updates: Talladega, Mexico City, and Upcoming Virtual Racing Events00:42:12 - Garage Talk Merch, Monza Oval iRacing, and Season Wrap-Up Announcements---------⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Bottom Split Racing Series⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ returns February 9, 2026!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Wednesday Night Dash⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ returns January 7, 2026!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Indy Racing World Series⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ returns February 24, 2026!Follow ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠F-R Racing⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ on social media.Affiliate Links: Today's episode is powered by Extreme SimRacing.
