Highlights from this episode include:

1)\xa0 How he has grown as a driver by being able to experience a wide variety of cars quickly from a very young age when he was autocrossing.\xa0 This cross training has led to his ability to adapt to cars very quickly and race in all style cars as needed.

2)\xa0 We take a moment to ask Tom which car he hasn't driven in (yet) that he would like to drive a race in at least once.\xa0 We think Adam may have to have a driver shuffle event to complement his field invert race, lol.

3)\xa0 It is amazing how early and deeply auto racing \u201cdrove\u201d within Tom when he discovered some of the early console driving games.

4)\xa0 We firmly believe that if Tom wins both autocross events in the NSX, he should be allowed to keep the NSX.\xa0 This could be another example of why we have no sponsors, lol.

5)\xa0 Tom even shared a great example of how even for a driver at his level that some weekends just don\u2019t go as well as we would wish and how Covid has impacted his racing.\xa0 We also go into his GLTC series racing history and how the Grid Life series has grown and continues to grow.\xa0 It is like a spec series in the closeness of the racing without a single car design.

6)\xa0 We poke Tom for some Mid Ohio rain tips.\xa0 He was nice enough to give a few of the things he has learned at his home track.\xa0 Vicki is insistent wet Mid Ohio is like lava.\xa0 Bill is starting to piece that together.

7)\xa0 The potential of the use of a 200 tread wear tire in GLTC and the potential advantages and disadvantages of a potential switch.

8)\xa0 Tom also discussed the Grid Life Sundae Cup series.

9)\xa0 We also go into coaching drivers at all levels, the use of in car coaching, as well as video, data, and even coach driving demonstration to help every level driver improve.

10)\xa0 \xa0Pushing limits and breaking though limits comes up again.\xa0 Hypothetically, lol.
