This is the Statt Mann Baby. Time to Scatt a little bit. July 4th is one of my favorite days of the year. I love fireworks and Irwindale Speedway here in Southern California normally puts on a great show. And when you mix in a night of Saturday night racing, it’s like an entertainment doubleheader.…
This is the Statt Mann, Baby. It’s time to Scatt a Little Bit… It’s been a CRAZY fifteen years, hasn’t it? None of it would be possible unless you come back every week and keep your residency current in The Freak Nation. The Freaks have experienced so much in the past fifteen years: Tragic, painful…
This is the Statt Mann, Baby. It’s time to Scatt a Little Bit… The broadcast of this weekend’s Le Mans 24 Hours adds perspective to our discussion last week putting the race in a motorsports Triple Crown. FOX did all it could to ruin the experience for me, at least. Eventually I turned it off…

This is the Statt Mann, Baby. It’s time to Scatt a Little Bit… On March First I talked about Amy Ruman’s win in the Trans-Am race at Sebring. Well today we’re bringing that name back to you. She’s now won four races in a row dating back to last year. That includes a powerful win…
This is the Statt Mann, Baby. It’s time to Scatt a Little Bit… I’ll always be my Dad’s son. So it’s not unusual for many in the NASCAR world, especially the NASCAR media, to see Dale Earnhardt, Jr. through the shadow of his famous father Dale, Sr. But Dale Sr. has been dead fourteen years.…
This is the Statt Mann, Baby. It’s time to Scatt a Little Bit… A friend sent me a wonderful story Sunday afternoon. Any race fan will smile when they hear that Mick Schumacher, son of seven-time Formula One champion Michael Schumacher, won his first open-wheel race in Germany today. It was only his third start…
This is the Statt Mann, Baby. It’s time to Scatt a Little Bit… More evidence this week that winning often has little to do with notoriety in motorsports.
