He joins co-host Chase Holden to reveal the details of his deal to drive the Juncos Hollinger number-78 NTT IndyCar for the rest of the 2024 season, starting this upcoming weekend at Gateway. Conor chats about how he felt on-track during the recent hybrid test at the Madison, Illinois oval and what he’s looking forward to most about working with the new team. The guys also react to the news bombshell that David Malukas will be joining the A.J. Foyt Racing team for a multi-year contract starting in 2025. They discuss how the potential charter deal may cause the rest of the IndyCar roster to shake out for next year.
The man of the hour David Malukas joins the show to chat about his new deal to join the historic Foyt team and what his goals are for the rest of his time with Meyer Shank Racing. Conor explains that when he initially reached out to schedule an interview with David, it was to check in with him after his tumultuous beginning of the 2024 season, and had no idea of the impending announcement of his new contract. David gives a lot of thanks to the Meyer Shank team who he explains took a chance on him after his hand injury and gave him a platform to return to the racing spotlight. The guys also discuss David’s online social media presence and what he’s doing to connect with Gen Z and help introduce them to IndyCar racing.
