   Rock crawling? It’s anything but at Crandon, says Loren Healy | RACER Weekly

   Loren Healy isn’t the winningest driver in Ultra4 history for nothing. The New Mexico native got hooked on rock crawling after giving it a go with a beat-up truck and a few friends and, multiple titles later, is still the guy to beat when the Ultra4 4400s hit the boulders at King of the Hammers or Crandon International Raceway. Loren joins RACER Weekly to tell us what makes Crandon so special, why he’s still enjoying new challenges – the 2026 Pikes Peak Hill Climb, anyone? – and how he’s working with Vaughn Gittin Jr. and Ford to make off-road adventuring accessible to everyone. And to check out Loren Healy at the 57th Polaris Crandon World Championships, head to RACER Network, Sept. 4-6, for live coverage of short-course off-road racing’s biggest weekend. #LorenHealy #Ultra4 #CrandonWorldChampionships #CrandonOffRoad #Baja500 #Baja1000 #PikesPeak #kingofthehammers #rockcrawling #Ford #RACERNetwork

   NHRA Funny Car ace J.R. Todd takes you inside the craziest 3.8 seconds in sports | RACER Weekly

   As former NHRA Funny Car champ and 2026 title contender J.R. Todd tells it, taking one of these 12,000hp beasts down a 1,000ft drag strip in 3.8 seconds and hitting 335mph as you reach for the chutes can be anything but funny… The driver of the Kalitta Motorsports DHL GR Supra joins RACER Weekly hot off a win in Seattle and getting set for what promises to be a closely-fought Countdown for the Funny Car Championship. The 2018 FC champ tells us what it’s like behind the wheel as the nitromethane-powered mayhem begins, his approach to the sharp end of the season, and why the fastest runs can also be the craziest. #NHRA #JRTodd #KalittaMotorsports #DHL #GRSupra #DragRacing #FunnyCar #Nitro #racing #motorsports #RACER

   IMSA 2026: Ricky Taylor on winning again and the teammate “X factor” | RACER Weekly

   When Wayne Taylor Racing reunited with Cadillac for a two-car IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship GTP class attack in 2025, it seemed that the wins would quickly follow. In reality, it took until Road America’s 6-hour enduro on Aug. 2 for Ricky Taylor and Filipe Albuquerque to crack the code and take their No. 10 WTR Cadillac V-Series.R to victory lane. Ricky joins RACER Weekly to look back on that return to winning ways, talk about the momentum built in recent races, and give us his take on some of the fast and fascinating co-drivers he’s raced with during almost two decades at the highest levels of prototype sports car racing. #RickyTaylor #WayneTaylorRacing #CadillacRacing #IMSA #racing #motorsports #endurance #sportscars
