About this episode

Conor Daly traded his Dallara in for a Silverado this past weekend as he was in NASCAR Truck action at Kansas. He joins co-host Chase Holden to dig into how the Friday night event unfolded and how he managed to bring the PolkaDot sponsored Niece Motorsports number-44 entry home in 17th position. They also catch up on the latest IndyCar off-season news, where Alexander Rossi has been tabbed to be the new pilot for the Ed Carpenter Racing number-20 ride. Conor explains why he is upset with ECR’s lack of acknowledgement for former racer Rinus VeeKay’s contributions to the team. IndyCar’s rumored return to Texas and Michael Andretti stepping down from his position of power at Andretti Global are also discussed.

Team Penske Racing Engineer Luke Mason joins the show to help give listeners a better idea of the technical side of IndyCar racing. Through his position on Josef Newgarden’s team, Luke has won back to back Indianapolis 500s over the past two seasons. Conor and Luke discuss how some drivers in the paddock have struggled to get used to the heavier Dallara that has developed over the years with the introduction of the aeroscreen and the hybrid system. They also dive into the world of dampers and how much of a difference they make in car setup programs. Conor asks Luke about the aerodynamics of the car and trim methods used to help make speed in qualifying, as well as how his requests to find comfort in the car differ from Josef.
