Getting faster with each trip to Flamboro Speedway allowed Mark Allan to achieve more of his goals, and run closer to the front of the field. However, that was not the only thing that stood out from those trips to the track. It was about the friendships, the people he got to know, and those who will probably be part of his circle for years to come. Oh, and then there’s the fans that love the dog on the hood of the racecar.

This isn’t your typical interview. This is more a great conversation between a pair of race fans about why the race track is awesome, from the competition on the track, to the adrenaline rush behind the wheel and the friendships formed.

This could have been much longer. I should have hit record about 20 minutes before I did, so excuse us for welcoming you in mid-conversation I suppose.
