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.

Need A Trailer? Rent One With Towlos.com! Matt Jones Shares His Motorsports And Business Journey
Bill loves the business side of motorsports and that is what makes this episode with Matt Jones so fun.
Matt is an orthopedic surgeon who recently pivoted to become a tech entrepreneur and started Towlos.com which connects trailer owners with trailer renters. Like most great ideas Matt saw the need for access to trailer rental when he and his friends wanted to trailer their Corvettes to the track.
Some of Matt's advice:
- Life is too short to be stuck
- Have the courage to make mistakes
- Respect cold tires
- Use advice of people you trust
- Your spouse/partner is your #1 investor
