Buddy Hull is now a driver/owner in NHRA Funny Car competition, and he’s had plenty to talk about after the fiery start it got off to this season. But that’s just a continuation of the wild rides he’s had in recent years. Hull joins the show to discuss the time spent since the burn down in Gainesville to prepare another car; missing a race so early in the season; wondering if all the hardships lately are trying to teach him something; what he’s learning about himself; his recovery from the Gainesville fire and burns; the manufacturer support in drag racing and how that ties into having a backup body; what it’s like to go through a sand trap; entering a new chapter this year as a team owner; the reason behind going from a hired driver to starting his own team; milestones set for the team this season; Top Fuel to Funny Car to potentially some Top Fuel again; the love for driving a Funny Car; starting out working for Tim Wilkerson and now racing against him; the family dynamic when he became a race car driver; his past in competitive power lifting; the genesis behind starting the Talkin Funny Car program; interviewing fellow competitors in a laid back environment; the plan for the rest of the year and when the team will be able to return to competition.
