The name, Late To Grid? In the past the host, Bill Snow, was always late to the track, late to get the car ready, and hence - Late To Grid. His goal with the podcast is to grow the sport and highlight the tools and resources that will help you get to the track and faster behind the wheel.

How To Make The Most Of Your "Off Season" with Michael Ribas
The off-season is shorter than we think and Michael Ribas joins the podcast to share some ideas about how to make the most of the off-season.
Michael Ribas is a performance coach (business, life, everything) and was a guest in season two of the Late To Grid podcast. Here's his episode.
Here are some ideas to get you started in your off-season planning and execution:
1. Take a break. Connect with your family. Relax
2. Perform a recap of the season. What worked, what didn't, and what do you need to do before next season.
3. Make a plan. Create a budget, make a schedule, ask for help, check your spares and trailer, measure your progress.
4. Set the goal and execute.
Don't forget about the who. Spend time working on you.
The best advice he has received?
1. Did dad said, avoid getting in a fight. If you do get in a fight - hit first! This means take action.
2. Effort = Results (my favorite).
Words of wisdom that Michael shares with his clients includes meeting people where they are. Where they are in their life, their sport, their career. Your advice only has meaning if it's applicable to where they are.
