Jim \u201cDaddy Earth\u201d Webb, Pat \u201cRichard Freelane\u201d McHugh take over another episode of the podcast (lol), but it was for a great cause and contribution to our society during this COVID 19 pandemic.\xa0 Jim and Pat have been working with James Ballenger from Ballenger Motorsports to raise funds and to fabricate and distribute face masks, face shields, and all kinds of assorted PPE for the Richmond region and anyone in need across the country.\xa0 Hopefully, you can add to the relief effort in some small way.\xa0 To bring it back to racing, we did get into a good discussion on the details and decisions related to converting your car from an OEM fuel system to using a fuel cell.\xa0 This is a truly inspiring story of what a bunch of race drivers and James Ballenger\u2019s team and Ballenger Motorsports were able to accomplish in a short amount of time.\xa0

As we always say, racers are some of the best and most generous people we have met.\xa0 This crisis has still not passed, so if you or anyone can help, it could literally be lifesaving and I am also sure we would like to be in a better position if there is ever a bounce back in the infection rate.\xa0 It took a bit to get the editing done, but the message and need remains the same. \xa0Even if you can\u2019t be of assistance in fabricating or assembly, there is always something that needs to be done that would assist.

The Dominating with Dawson segment deals with what to do and what not to do when going on track for the first time.\xa0 \xa0

We hope you enjoy the episode!
