Behind the Wheel: NASCAR with Rajah Caruth

This episode starts with the host recapping a Liberty vs. Connecticut Sun game and raving about the in-arena experience, especially Ellie the mascot, before sharing thoughts on the WNBA’s 30th season and how the Caitlin Clark “Cinderella shoe…is now off,” as fans see more of her on-court personality and the league’s competitiveness rises with limited roster spots.

Then we meet NASCAR driver Rajah Caruth, who clears up the constant “Are you related to the other one?” question and explains how he got into racing through iRacing when money and access were real barriers. He breaks down why “racing is… the toughest barrier of entry” financially, how his first setup was “my school laptop and an $80 wheel,” and why it’s “not… plug and play” but a real entry point if you do the work.

Listeners will walk away with a fresh, practical look at how mentorship, resourcefulness, and consistency can open doors in a sport with only “36 seats” at the top. Connect @CariChampion @RajahCaruth_ Subscribe Cari Champion's YOUTUBE Channel See for privacy information.
