3-Time NHRA Top Fuel Champion Antron Brown was super candid with Statt Mann recently. He went from some of the smaller tracks that the NHRA runs on and how fans accept a champion’s attitude, to where he gets the mentoring to maintain a champion’s attitude. Antron Brown is a man made for a champion’s attitude…
NHRA Top Fuel Driver Leah Pritchett has won the NHRA’s last two trips to Phoenix. So she’s getting ready for a third win next weekend. But her visit to The Freak Nation Sunday night looked at more things like Danica’s impact on drag racing, her recorded fastest run in NHRA history and how she plans…
This is the Statt Mann Baby. Time to Scatt a little bit. Some Formula 1 news on Daytona Day. The word is Sky Sports will be supplying the F1 coverage when ESPN picks up the series in March. Sky Sports is well respected in Europe but that’s Europe. None of the commentators are well known…
2018 Daytona 500 Pole Sitter Alex Bowman made another venture into The Freak Nation Sunday night after winning the Pole for next week’s race. Bowman has maybe the hardest task in NASCAR, replacing Dale Earnhardt, Jr. for 2018. Being the fastest qualifier for the Daytona 500 is a nice way to start, however. Listen…
NASCAR Clash Winner Brad Keselowski talked with Kenny & Crash before he won Sunday at Daytona. Brad was in Phoenix to do some appearances for Miller Light at the remodeled ISM Raceway. Keselowski, though, spent more time talking daughters and driving. Listen…
NHRA Pomona Funny Car Winner Matt Hagan is a regular in The Freak Nation. His win Sunday at the Lucas Oil Winternationals matches a longstanding record.

Lucas Oil ARCA Daytona Winner Michael Self hasn’t been in The Freak Nation before Sunday night. It was good to hear from him after his win Saturday night. The win wasn’t easy by any stretch. Race stoppages and restarts in the last ten laps of the race made it anyone’s to win. Self put his…
2011 IndyCar Rookie of the Year James Hinchcliffe is a favorite of The Freaks. The Mayor of Hinch Town always has something to add to our conversation and Sunday, in honor of the Winter Olympics in Korea, the addition was curling. James is from Canada where curling is King. He also admits to having a…
This is the Statt Mann Baby. Time to Scatt a little bit. Some things bothered me this week in the news. Elon Musk launching a Tesla roadster into space is a technological achievement for sure. But getting a promised new car out on time for the people who are standing in line to get one…
Three-time NHRA Top Fuel champion Antron Brown sat down with Statt Mann this week and found a different road to travel, one less traveled by anyone else in the drag racing media.
