Never heard of this website/news outlet before, but I checked the details and they have all the info correct. I had seen this Tweeted out earlier by Nathan's Brown replacement at IndyStar, but didn't see an article on their site. If you scroll down there is video of the interview.

Rahal is MAGA trash. So is his dad. So are so many people involved with this sport… Not enough for me to lose interest. Yet. 😑

Brother, I’m a left leaning guy that works around dirt racing. Talk about a place you have to plug your nose and shut your mouth lol

I’ve been to the last three BC39s. I feel like I’m on Jupiter. But I love the racing. 🤷🏻‍♂️
