Summary
Picture it: Your scrappy little pro race team has a rough 2024. The next year, out of nowhere, you win Daytona. Then the whole gang takes its first trip to Le Mans and lands a killer finish. The rest of Jeff Braun's 2025 IMSA season was, to quote Jeff, “not that.” This one’s a doozy: First, we’ve got INTC co-host Jeff sharing what he learned in IMSA this year. (Jeff helps run a Corvette in the GTD class, remember.) Second, we’ve got Sam, who made way too much coffee on tape day. He's a little rapid-fire yappy here, but hey, we’re all captives to fate, fly on free bird, fútbol/racing podshow is life, right? Trophies rarely teach you something. But a long, tough season in pro racing just might. This show’s format rotates weekly, because squirrel. We call this format "What I've Learned."
