Ep. 322 | Layne Riggs

Layne Riggs is back with Front Row Motorsports in the Craftsman Truck Series, and we check in with the sophomore driver before he heads to Daytona. Riggs also discusses recovering from offseason shoulder surgery and how it felt during the Rockingham test last month; the shoulder making him go viral after winning at Milwaukee; what it’s like competing in a NASCAR national series for the first time; the adjustment to racing wide open; going through the learning pains of a rookie season; the biggest thing about having one season under his belt; where he’s most looking forward to returning; learning to race inches from the wall; the physical exhaustion of racing; the overall feeling entering a new season; expectations versus reality of being a driver; leaning on other drivers for guidance; not having to balance school anymore; having NASCAR’s John Patalak as a professor; being interested in the safety side of the sport; being hands-on with his truck; the finals days of the offseason.  Original music created by Tony Monge. Follow me here: https://linktr.ee/kellycrandall
