This week, Mac Clark joins the pod to talk about his upcoming season in USF Pro 2000 and how he’s quickly climbing the open wheel ranks on his own personal road to Indy. Mac has had a tremendous amount of success in his young career starting out in Canada before moving into US F4 and then into USF Juniors and beyond. He talks about representing Canada in the wider racing world, balancing race car driving with attending college and his goal of winning the Indy 500.

We also talked about some news coming out of F1...
F1 testing took place over three days last week in Bahrain. Haas emerged from testing as the top team on the grid..in one particular category anyway.
Most of Haas’ pre-season talk has been about trying to improve on tire degradation and hoping that leads to better performances in races. Kevin Magnussen spoke positively about how everything is going with Ayao Komatsu and was also honest about their expectations heading into the season.
Logan Sargeant logged laps on day one and two of the pre-season testing for Williams, placing 11th on both days.
Listen in to hear more about Haas and Logan's week in Bahrain.
And we catch up with some exciting news from a guest from earlier this year, Nathan Saxon, who announced today he’s headed to Spain to compete in the final round of the Muhlner Motorsport LMP shootout. He’ll be going over to try and compete for a seat in the Prototype Cup Germany driving an LMP3 car. Best of luck to Nathan! Follow his progress over on his instagram.
