About Ghost Speedways

Motorsports and racing of many kinds have a giant history both here at home in the United States and abroad. Sadly, history hasn't always been as kind to the facilities that helped make that history and grow the sport. The ghosts of the past are littered around the country as relics of that history. We at Racing with Jesse Rucinski love to discuss these tracks amongst ourselves. We talk about how many tracks need the help and ways that can help to save more tracks from becoming abandoned. This is our way to share the history of so many of these tracks and explain what made the sport we love.

There is a lot of history to discuss in this debut episode.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍

Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
