Episode 64- Racers and Engine builders Gordy Jennings and Paul Fitzgerald

This week's episode features an inside look at the Boat Alcohol Displacement (BAD) Boat Challenge in Australia with Stock Racing team members Gordy Jennings (Jennings Motorsports) and Paul Fitzgerald (Southern Thunder Marine).

As the crew chiefs responsible for tuning and maintaining Mike Stock's El Cid K-boat, piloted by Duff Daily, Jennings and Fitzgerald found themselves representing the United States alongside Mr. Big Stuff and driver Ty Newton. Together, the two American teams faced a formidable lineup of 28 blown alcohol boats from Australia and New Zealand, making for two intense weekends of competition.

We explore the realities of taking a race program halfway around the world, the chemistry within a veteran team, and the technical and strategic hurdles they encountered along the way. The discussion also highlights the Australian racers, their distinct equipment, and unique approach to driving. And while the racing was serious, the experience was as rewarding as it was challenging and a whole lot of fun.
