The World of Outlaws late model series season got started last night at Volusia, and I actually recorded this conversation with Kyle McFadden right as cars were hitting the track for heat races. He was at the Wild West Shootout, so I had to ask abou the Jonathan Davenport-Tyler Erb situation, along with Bobby Pierce vs. Hudson O'Neal. McFadden had interesting things to say about both, especially given he talked to all parties. We also previewed the national touring seasons, talked about what to expect from some other high profile guys, and a lot more. When it comes to covering dirt late model racing breaking news and big stories, there aren't many better than Kyle, so I hope you enjoy it.
