The Racing Ear Podcast
Hello my name is Trent Barr and thank you for listening to The Racing Ear Podcast. I have been a passionate historic sports car racing fan since I was a child and I started my first version podcast back in 2014. I started going to historic sports car racing events and audio recording racing cars in the paddock and on the track. Then I started up again and I wanted to interview people who have been in the racing industry.
I have been involved with hosting this podcast with 2-Time 24 Hours of Le Mans Winner, Rick Knoop and Auto Racing Engineer, Jeff Oldham. I have been involved in over 40 episodes of interviews through the kindness of Rick and Jeff with very well know figures in the racing world.
More recently I started podcasting again by going to events and just being a Huell Howser-esque kind of interviewer / fan talking to people about their cars, whether they own racing cars, classic cars, or are just racing fans just like me. I look forward to doing more interviews in the future as well as attending more historic sports car racing events in the future as well.
Thank you so much for listening to The Racing Ear Podcast.

TRE Ep 29 Racing Memories with Jeff Oldham and Rick Knoop
Send me a message. I would love to know where you are listening to me from!!
Hello again Racing Ears,
In this episode, Jeff Oldham is our special guest. Rick Knoop and Jeff Oldham have known each other for over 40 years. It was great to hear about Jeff originally being from Indianapolis Indiana. His Dad taking him to the Indianapolis 500 practice and qualifying sessions was a big reason why he has had a deep love for auto racing. Both Jeff and Rick also have an affectionate love for Road America in Elkart Lake Wisconsin.
Anyway, Jeff was kind enough to share with The Racing Ear Podcast audience what he loves about auto racing that includes meeting many historic and memorable characters in the sport.
Thank you for your support and listening to The Racing Ear Podcast!
