Stacking Pennies with Corey LaJoie

NHRA Top Fuel rookie Maddi Gordon joins Corey LaJoie and Skip Flores to explain what 12,000 horsepower really feels like, how she earned her way in the shop, what Ron Capps saw in her, and how she once won a round with no shift lights, no two-step, and no data.
Corey and Skip also recap Nashville, SVG’s continued rise, Denny Hamlin’s move, O’Reilly racing, and why simple floors and big horsepower might be the answer.

Travis Pastrana joins Corey LaJoie and Ryan Flores on Stacking Pennies for one of the wildest conversations we’ve ever had.

The guys also get into Cleetus McFarland, creator racing, sprint cars, Top Fuel dragsters, Gymkhana Australia, and the one racing memory Travis would keep forever.
From Daytona to X Games to Ken Block to Charlotte Motor Speedway, this one is pure Travis Pastrana chaos.

This week on Stacking Pennies, Corey LaJoie sits down with a guest fans have been asking for: his dad, Randy LaJoie.
Randy talks about being on the NASCAR Hall of Fame ballot, why the Hall should recognize more than just Cup Series greatness, the Cup deal he turned down after his Busch Series championships, the backyard go-kart track where Corey learned to race, and the seat company that became a major part of his legacy.
Plus, Corey, Randy, and Ryan Flores break down Connor Zilisch’s wild Watkins Glen win, SVG’s road-course dominance, Formula Drift, IndyCar push-to-pass drama, Buckshot Jones stories, Dover memories, and the safety lessons short-track racers still need to hear.
Drop your favorite Randy LaJoie memory in the comments, and let us know: Does the NASCAR Hall of Fame give lower-division racers enough respect?

Ryan Blaney came in on May the 4th and this thing went exactly how it should’ve: Star Wars, Texas, dad life, painful crash stories, and a whole lot of laughing.

This one’s part race recap, part hang, and one of the funniest episodes we’ve done in a while.
