Late to Grid - Grassroots Racing
We share the stories and inspiration that will help get more people behind the wheel and on the track. Track days, HPDE, SCCA, NASA, ChampCar, LeMons, and autocrossing - we interview drivers and industry insiders that will help drivers along their motorsports journey.
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.

Matt Harbert is an automotive technician at Atomic Autosports and Rad Air in Wickliffe. He's also the team lead on the Rad Air Racing team and I finally had him on the podcast.
Matt's full of energy and represents the great part of our sport. I am excited to see people like Matt taking an interest in grassroots racing and contributing to the industry rather than just be in the industry.
Matt shares some great advice...
- Don't modify your car crazy
- Skip Miata and buy a Corvette
- Have fun (many people have told him this)
- Get seat time
- Change your fluids and look over your car prior to an event
