Show notes

In this week's episode we preview this weekend's racing in my home state of Oklahoma and catch up with California-based privateer rider, James Monaco. We chat about everything from growing almonds to cleaning pools and prepping a race track. This guy has gone from racing on Kenny Roberts Ranch as a child, to racing his way into his first AFT Twins main event in 2017.
