Growth, on and off the Track! (Randy Lanier)

BREAK/FIX the Motorsports & Vehicle Enthusiast Variety Show

“One day in 2015, I got an email from a stranger named Mike Carr, who lived in Pennsylvania. He told me he raced a BMW and that he'd read about my story in a magazine. He wanted to know if I'd team up with him for an endurance race at Mid-Ohio coming up. I stared at the words on my computer screen for a long time, wondering how to respond. My prosecuting attorney's name was Michael Carr. So this stranger reaching out with the same name? I don't know what to make of it. Finally, I typed the words: Is this a joke?

Nope, not a Joke.”

That’s a quote from the 2022 book “Survival of the Fastest” - Weed, speed and the 1980s Drug scandal that shocked the Sports world, by Randy Lanier. Join us in welcoming Mike Carr and Randy Lanier to Break/Fix, along with special guest co-host GTM’er Tom Newman to tell the rest of this incredible story…
