Host Kyle McFadden sits down with Karsyn Elledge, granddaughter of NASCAR legend Dale Earnhardt Sr. and niece of Dale Jr., to talk about dirt racing and trying to find her purpose as an 18-year-old in one of the most iconic families in motorsports.
Karsyn talks about her first full season with the USAC National Midget Series, why she chose dirt racing over her family's traditional route, aspirations outside of the car, the troubling crossroad to pursue racing or another niche, family stories, the state of dirt racing, her hero, and if she'll ever race a 410 winged sprint car.
We also recap the weekend and preview this week's Knoxville Nationals.
