Elite Motorsports is on fire after announcing Tony Stewart is joining the team, R+L Carriers is coming aboard, and a new crew chief is stepping in to shake things up. It\u2019s a massive power move from Freeman and company, and we\u2019re getting the inside story straight from the man himself.<\/p>\n<p>Then we\u2019re welcoming in Mike Finnegan, one of the most recognizable voices in motorsports and a true YouTube icon. From Roadkill to Finnegan\u2019s Garage to the drag-and-drive world, the dude has seen it all. We\u2019re picking his brain about what\u2019s happening in the scene right now, where drag-and-drive is headed, and what\u2019s got him fired up in 2025.<\/p>\n<p>And to wrap it up, we\u2019re catching up with Chase Lautenbach, co-owner and founder of Streetcar Takeover. Chase and his team are keeping the streetcar movement rolling strong, with big events on deck for next year. The grassroots side of drag racing has never been hotter, and Streetcar Takeover is right in the middle of it.<\/p>\n<p>As always, it\u2019s real talk about the sport we love, the cars, the people, and the passion that make drag racing the wildest show on earth.<\/p>\n<p>\u2e3b<br \/>Each week on The Wes Buck Show, Wes Buck, JT \u201cMurder T\u201d Hudson, and Mike Carpenter bring their unique insights and analysis to the most electrifying moments and storylines from a packed weekend of drag racing.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/s.w.org\/images\/core\/emoji\/16.0.1\/72x72\/1f4f2.png\" alt=\"\ud83d\udcf2\" class=\"wp-smiley\" \/> SUBSCRIBE for the latest in drag racing: @dragillustrated<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/s.w.org\/images\/core\/emoji\/16.0.1\/72x72\/1f6d2.png\" alt=\"\ud83d\uded2\" class=\"wp-smiley\" \/> GRAB YOUR MERCH: dragillustrated.store<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/s.w.org\/images\/core\/emoji\/16.0.1\/72x72\/1f4e1.png\" alt=\"\ud83d\udce1\" class=\"wp-smiley\" \/> STAY CONNECTED: @thewesbuckshow @dragillustrated<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/s.w.org\/images\/core\/emoji\/16.0.1\/72x72\/1f525.png\" alt=\"\ud83d\udd25\" class=\"wp-smiley\" \/> RACERS CLUB MERCH: racers.club<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/s.w.org\/images\/core\/emoji\/16.0.1\/72x72\/1f680.png\" alt=\"\ud83d\ude80\" class=\"wp-smiley\" \/> Wanna sponsor the show?
