But it’s not just about stats and finishes… this is about the PEOPLE behind the helmets and behind the scenes. The stories you don’t always hear. The laughs 😂, the rivalries 😤, the family ties ❤️, and the passion that keeps dirt track racing alive and growing.

This one’s packed with stories.

On this episode of Built2Media, we sit down with local street stock legend Mike Knudtson for a high-energy, no-filter conversation about the past, present, and what’s coming next. From intense rivalries and hard racing to wild wrecks and unforgettable nights at the track, Mike brings the stories that only true racers can tell.

We dig into the moments that shaped him—memories with his dad, his biggest wins, and the competitors who pushed him to be better every single night. And yes… the stories get as good as you’d expect, including: “I grabbed the water cannon, and told him to go cool down.”

But this episode goes deeper than racing.

Mike opens up about stepping away from the track, focusing on family, and how life has changed in the best way. From his weight loss journey to feeling better than ever, this is a side of Mike people don’t always get to hear. We also talk about the future—what 2026 could look like, and whether the next generation of Knudtsons might be getting behind the wheel sooner than you think.

This is more than racing—it’s legacy, growth, and real-life perspective from one of the most well-known names in the local scene.
