The Fast Track to Life: Christian Blevins, Jr.

Tonight, we’re diving into the high-octane world of racing with a young driver who's redefining what it means to chase a dream. Meet Christian Blevins Jr - a rising star in the racing world who's leaving traditional classrooms in the dust to focus on one thing: becoming the best behind the wheel. Instead of textbooks and lockers, Christian's education happens at Speed U, an elite racing-focused program that’s built for athletes like him - drivers who live life in the fast lane, both on and off the track.

On this episode, we’ll follow Christian’s journey, from training sessions to race day, the challenges of balancing school and sport, and what it really takes to become a champion in the making. Whether you're a racing fan, an aspiring athlete, or just someone who loves a good underdog story—strap in, because this ride is just getting started!

And joining me tonight is returning guest David Middleton, our partner from MIE-racing.com along with him is Christian Blevins Sr. adding the parental perspective to this conversation.
