In this episode of The Dirt Parlor, we sit down with Aaron Reutzel—just days after pulling off a $100,000 win at Port Royal Speedway. From an emotional high on the wing to the brutal lows of nearly walking away from the sport, Aaron doesn’t hold back. He shares the full story of his weekend: the pain, the pressure, and the ultimate payoff.
Aaron gets real about the mental battles behind the wheel and what it took to fall back in love with racing. After a rough few years, it wasn’t a team or a sponsor that brought him back—it was a late-night beer with a friend and the decision to stop pretending to be someone he’s not. That moment sparked a comeback not just on the track, but in life.
This episode is raw, unfiltered, and packed with insight for anyone chasing greatness—or just trying to get back on track. Aaron’s story is a reminder that the road to success isn’t always smooth, but it’s always worth it when you race it your way.
🔥 Shoutout to Our Sponsors: A huge thank you to Hoker Trucking, Nutrien, Bodies by Skinny and Checkered Customs for their support. Your commitment fuels the passion, competition, and community that make dirt racing great!
