Danny Eslick

In this week's episode, we recap the Red Mile and catch up with my long-time friend, Danny Eslick. I've had the pleasure of watching this guy race since he was four years old. We talked through his first days of racing, his Daytona 200 wins, his 2018 racing seasons across road racing and flat track, and much more. 📸 Jodi Johnson 00:24 - Horizon Award & Dairyland Classic 00:40 - Red Mile recap 01:13 - Danny Eslick intro 01:48 - Whatcha been up to since Texas? 02:43 - Whats it like growing up in Tulsa? 03:08 - Scottie talks about his first memory of Slick 04:08 - Do you remember the first time you rode a motorcycle? 05:10 - Talks about growing up racing with his brother 06:58 - Who did you look up to racing as a kid? 07:50 - Do you remember your first race? 08:55 - Do you have any superstitions like your brother? 09:49 - Do you have a favorite racing memory? 11:01 - Talks about his victory celebrations 12:36 - You just had a birthday…how did you celebrate? 13:09 - Talks about racing for Michael Jordan 14:55 - Talks about racing in France 16:37 - Daytona 200 talks 18:45 - So what really happened in 2016? 19:45 - Do you have any doubt in your mind you would have won in 2016? 20:27 - Are you already thinking about winning your fifth? 21:53 - Talks about his 2018 MotoAmerica season 23:25 - Talks about riding for Bruce Rossmeyer 24:34 - Why do you still like coming to play in the dirt with us flat trackers? 25:22 - What event are you racing next? 26:14 - Do you know what brand you may be riding in OKC? 26:27 - “I’m gonna put my head down either way” 28:02 - What races left on the schedule do you want to race? 28:56 - What type of flat track racing do you prefer? 31:46 - Talks about making through the big wreck in Texas 33:47 - Thoughts on what Jared Mees and his team is doing this year 34:38 - Have you got to ride an FTR750 yet? 34:59 - Talks about Ronnie Jones 35:36 - Gram’s question - What are your future plans for racing? 35:55 - Rapid Fire w/ Danny Eslick 38:14 - Scottie’s favorite Slick stories 40:24 - Thank yous & Shout outs 41:57 - “Hell, it may have been a 1200, we can talk about it now”
