On this week\u2019s podcast, we had the pleasure of interviewing Amanda Baak of the Faster Farms team who we met at last week\u2019s Lucky Dog race at Laguna Seca.\xa0 Vicki and Amanda had some very exciting racing for a dozen laps or so until things ended poorly on our end.\xa0 Their team races a Plymouth Belvedere, as everyone should.\xa0 After repeatedly racing with them Saturday and Sunday, we had to have them on to find out more about the team, Amanda, and Adrian who made an impromptu appearance.\xa0 We enjoyed our conversation and hope you will too.\xa0 We can't wait to see them again, hopefully at the track.\xa0
\xa0
Some highlights include:\xa0
1)\xa0 How and why a Plymouth Belvedere came to be a race car for the past twelve years
2)\xa0 Faster Farms team history and its ties to a real chicken ranch/pick and pull
3) \xa0We compare the different racing areas, like California, Colorado and the east coast race crowds
4)\xa0 How they installed their crystal auto-brake system to make other cars break before passing them
5) Bill has a(nother) bad plan for west coast racing
6)\xa0 We also begin to make a plan for an upcoming Thompson race
7)\xa0 Seeking revenge on Willow Springs
8)\xa0 The upcoming Alameda parade
9)\xa0 Probably the best \u201cGood\u201d story we have ever had with our Good, Bad, and the Ugly segment.\xa0 We are pretty sure Adrian isn\u2019t familiar with the word \u201cgood\u201d, lol.\xa0
10)\xa0 Shout out to our many Belgium and Australian listeners
11)\xa0 Differences between the Lucky Dog Series and the Lemons series
\xa0
Hopefully, we can be a bad influence and get them out to Thompson for a race at some point, maybe even getting our all-female driven car team goal accomplished.\xa0
