E5: Amateur racing, F4, karting and more w/ Dominic Trolio

In this episode, we’re diving deep into amateur racing, sim racing, and everything in between with my good friend Dominic Trolio. Dom has tested F4 cars and actively races shifter karts, giving him firsthand insight into what it takes to step up into open-wheel racing. We’ll talk about the challenges of moving up the ranks, the skills young drivers need, and how sim racing has become a real tool for learning and improving on the track.

We also share our own experiences behind the wheel, from Motorsport Ranch to my time at Sonoma Raceway, swapping stories about the thrill of driving legendary circuits. It’s all about racing, car culture, and the pursuit of speed in this high-energy episode.

AutoTalksUS is more than just cars—it’s about the people, the passion, and the stories that fuel the automotive world.

Stay tuned, stay excited, and let’s make 2025 an unforgettable ride together. Buckle up and join us for the journey!
