On this week’s episode, we dive into TJ’s race in Morgan, Vermont with NEXC and recap Lucas’s first-ever ditch race in Manvel, North Dakota. TJ hit the ice for the second race of the season, while Lucas and the COR Powersports series took on their first ditch race in over three years. Two very different tracks, two very different challenges, and plenty to break down.

On this week’s episode, we dive into the Cor Powersports race at Park Rapids. With temperatures dropping as low as negative 25 degrees and even colder with the windchill, we still managed to go racing. The schedule was adjusted for safety, and we’re just glad the event wasn’t canceled. Up next on the circuit is the first ditch race in over three years, so nobody really knows who the guy to beat will be.

    Betrayal Season 5

    Saskia Inwood woke up one morning, knowing her life would never be the same. The night before, she learned the unimaginable – that the husband she knew in the light of day was a different person after dark. This season unpacks Saskia’s discovery of her husband’s secret life and her fight to bring him to justice. Along the way, we expose a crime that is just coming to light. This is also a story about the myth of the “perfect victim:” who gets believed, who gets doubted, and why. We follow Saskia as she works to reclaim her body, her voice, and her life.
