🎙️ Inside Groove #166: Bicycles, Hy-Miler & Prayers

Guests: Jeff Abold • Dave Shullick Jr.
Hosted by: Tom Baker
Presented by: TrackTune.Live | AuditoryDefense.com | J&S Paving | FHS Oil | Radical Race Gear


In this powerful and wide-ranging edition of Inside Groove, host Tom Baker takes us through a show filled with heart, horsepower, and hope.

🔶 The episode opens on a somber but important note, as Tom offers a reflection and prayer request for Stewart Friesen, who suffered a fractured pelvis and leg in a brutal crash at Autodrome Drummond. The discussion includes a serious look at racer safety, answers the debate about whether Stewart should be racing Modifieds, and why we can never take life for granted.

🔶 Then it’s onto something truly uplifting — Jeff Abold joins the show to talk about Team Abold’s massive bike giveaway at Oswego Speedway, where 118 bikes were gifted to local kids. Jeff also shares his candid take on the state of big block Supermodified racing and ideas to secure its future.

🔶 Next up, Dave Shullick Jr. checks in fresh off his win in the ISMA/MSS Hy-Miler Classic at Sandusky Speedway. DJ breaks down how the new car handled, why it worked, and what machine he plans to wheel when he returns to Oswego.

🔶 Tom wraps the show with a breakdown of Hy-Miler action, including the Brandon Bellinger bombshell — the former Oswego champ showed up with the Todd Stowell-built 89 Extreme Chassis, creating buzz ahead of the Budweiser International Classic. What does it mean for his chances? Tom has thoughts on this and the upcoming Retro Night show at Oswego.
