About this episode
This week on Talkin’ Shift, we’re joined by Michelle Lackey, the owner and operator of Alaska’s only drag strip. If you’ve seen racing in Alaska, chances are it’s happening at her track. We talk about what it’s really like running a drag strip in Alaska — from the unreal mountain views to the short racing season, weather challenges, logistics, and how it all compares to tracks in the lower 48. Michelle breaks down what makes Alaska racing unique and what it takes to keep the scene alive that far north.
