Driving Around In Circles | Motorsport, Racing, and Karting Knowledge
A podcast about racing. This podcast is documenting our journey in motorsport racing. We started kart racing and after one year, we still have more questions than answers. If you are into racing, or are a parent, and have questions, this is the podcast for you. If you don't have questions but still want to hear from other people who share your passion, this is also the podcast for you.
