In this exciting episode, we're sitting down with rising star Emerson Axsom. From his earliest memories of racing to making a name for himself in the micro world, Emerson’s love for dirt racing has propelled him to success.

We explore Emerson’s initial introduction to racing, influenced by his father's pavement-focused career in Silver Crown. Did he plead for his first race car, or did his interest develop more slowly? His recollections of his first car and his quarter midget days provide a fascinating glimpse into his racing roots.

Emerson reflects on how micro racing has been a game-changer for his career, particularly his collection of 3 Golden Drillers. We delve into his victories in 2020's Outlaw Wing and 2022's Stock Non-Wing, discussing how these wins helped establish his reputation.

We discuss his successful partnership with Scott Petry, and his first midget race. Emerson's swift transition to midgets brought early success, with his first POWRI win in 2021 and a USAC National Midget Win shortly after. Was he surprised by how quickly these came?

Moving to 2021's end, we explore Emerson's opportunity to run for CMR in the sprint car. From his early races to his rapid success, Emerson discusses the strength of his relationship with the crew.

In 2022, his rookie sprint car season, Emerson began with a bang by securing his first non-wing 410 sprint car win with USAC and followed it up with another win 2 days later. We discuss the significance of these victories and his triumph on night #1 of the Western World in 2022.

This year, Emerson has showcased remarkable consistency in USAC, finishing outside the top ten only once. What's behind this incredible performance? We also discuss his strong start during the Eastern Storm and two wins at Big Diamond and Williams Grove, all leading up to his current position as points leader.
