Colin Garrett & the 11/11 Veterans Project

The last time we saw our guest he was suiting up to attack the track at Virginia International Raceway (VIR) behind the wheel of the Rooster Hall Racing BMW M2 in his inaugural season. Fast forward an entire year and Colin Garrett is the newly crowned TCX Class Champion in the SRO World Challenge TC America series. And he’s here to share some incredible stories of racing, discuss new trends in motorsports, and bring you up to speed on his unique mission of advocacy and social impact. 

This episode is brought to you by SRO Motorsports America and their partners at AWS, Crowdstrike, Fanatec, Pirelli, and the Skip Barber Racing School.
