Deadly Passions, Terrible JoysDeadly Passions, Terrible JoysBig Bill vs. the Brotherhood: NASCAR’s War on UnionsUnlike the NFL, MLB, or even Formula 1, NASCAR has never had a drivers’ union, but not for lack of trying. In the early 1960s, Hall of Famer Curtis Turner joined forces with the Teamsters in a bold push to organize the garage area — a move that got him blacklisted by the sport he helped build. Over the years, similar efforts were quietly floated and just as quickly shut down.Why has unionization never gained a foothold in stock car racing? What were the drivers asking for — and what is NASCAR so afraid of?In this episod...2025-08-0557 minDeadly Passions, Terrible JoysDeadly Passions, Terrible JoysHitler's favorite racing driver and the team that discovered himIf Bernd Rosemeyer had not existed, historian Anthony Pritchard remarked, then the National Socialist Party would have had to invent him.Tall, blond, strong, and domineering, Rosemeyer became the pride of Adolf Hitler's motorsport program, and the epitome of its goals. The press couldn't get enough of him, hailing him a “radiant boy,” a “bold fighter.” “Beautiful blond Bernd,” they gushed, as they linked him to the true superiority of Aryan blood and praised his overt willingness to compete with a swastika armband, to attribute his success to the glory of his mother country.Rosemeyer burst onto t...2025-07-2256 minDeadly Passions, Terrible JoysDeadly Passions, Terrible JoysHow Mercedes powered Hitler’s motorsport arms raceIn the build-up to the 1934 German Grand Prix, the already formidable Nürburgring was transformed. Gone were the days of packing a race track with nothing but enthusiasts; under the control of new chancellor Adolf Hitler, motorsport was the ideal venue in which to display the might of his new, robust Germany under the Third Reich.Track facilities were draped in swastika flags, while a regiment of brownshirts had marched for weeks from Berlin to be present at the July event. Over 150,000 spectators had descended on the rural track, keen to lay eyes on the new German r...2025-07-091h 08Deadly Passions, Terrible JoysDeadly Passions, Terrible JoysRace of Two Worlds: IndyCar vs. Formula 1 on Monza's Oval TrackIn the late 1950s, the folks in charge of The Autodromo Nazionale di Monza had to face a harsh reality: They had spent millions to revitalize the banked oval that had been an original feature of the track back in the 1920s, but that had been destroyed prior to World War II. They had thought the Italian Grand Prix would be made all the more compelling with a flat-out banked section to challenge the drivers.But Grand Prix cars weren't built to withstand the high speeds and g forces of oval racing, and the European drivers hated...2025-06-2458 minDeadly Passions, Terrible JoysDeadly Passions, Terrible JoysCamille du Gast: France's extraordinary first woman racerCamille du Gast wasn't the first woman to get behind the wheel of a race car, but she was the first woman who gained international recognition for doing so when she began taking part in grand epreuves as early as 1901. She was the first woman in France to earn a driver's license, the first woman to hold an official role in the Automobile Club de France.But to call Camille du Gast a racer and nothing else would be to diminish a lifetime of accomplishments.

No; the real reason the race was being flagged was because so many spectators had flocked to the pedestrian bridge to gape at the wreckage that the whole structure was sagging.

For 30 years, other locals and previous generations stood alongside that very same ribbon of road, watching that very same race.But on May 12, a Ferrari 335 S scythed through the crowd, and in an instant, nine spectators were dead — cut down just outside their homes.

With American open-wheel racing already in disarray as team owners began to demand greater accountability from their sanctioning body, the plane crash only served to accelerate a battle we've come to know as the Split.What role did that plane crash play in the ultimate fracturing of CART (Championship Auto Racing Teams) from USAC?

Against his mother's wishes, he pursued a racing career of his own and went on to become Formula 1's first-ever back-to-back World Champion with Ferrari. Still, he was unable to shake the feeling that he was following in his father's footsteps — right down to wondering if he, too, would die behind the wheel.Throughout his life, Ascari turned to superstition to make sense of the chaos.

The automotive press loved this zippy rear-engined machine for its crisp handling and its race-y feel — but it didn't take long before the machine to become the center of hundreds of lawsuits alleging that the car was not only responsible for injuring and killing its drivers and passengers, but that General Motors had known that would happen all along.

Wright, the NASCAR driver that never existedOn May 2, 1982, the green flag flew for the NASCAR Winston 500 at Talladega Superspeedway, and among a grid of legends like Dale Earnhardt, Bill Elliott, Benny Parsons, and more was a mystery racer no one had ever heard of before: L. W. Wright. Wright managed to nab a competition license, a race car, and some positive press, but there was just one problem. He wasn't a race car driver. He was a conman with a big dream and studied confidence so strong that no one much questioned this stranger. At least, not until his checks started bouncing.  2025-02-0436 minDeadly Passions, Terrible JoysDeadly Passions, Terrible JoysRajo Jack: The Black American racer who defied the AAAThe AAA Contest Board was the primary sanctioning body for motorsport in the United States until 1956, but the organization that sanctioned the Indy 500 refused to allow Black drivers to compete in its disciplines.

Unfortunately, riding mechanics had very little protection, making them especially prone to brutal injuries and deaths in big events like the Indianapolis 500.

In 1996, the Indy car realm had blown to pieces over access to the iconic event, and dissatisfied teams attempted to set up their own version of the 500.
