As Mike Shank worked to make his team a success, he assembled a core of mainstays within the shop. Then came along a succession of influencers seemingly at just the right times, Shank said, not the least of whom is Brian Bailey of Rocky Fork Company, who turned his passion for racing into being part of MSR after a chance meeting with Shank.

At Speed: Auto Racing with Michael Shank and Tim May

Ep. 9: Key sponsor gives insight about Meyer Shank Racing

Welcome to At Speed with Michael Shank and Tim May presented by Rocky Fork Company. This is a podcast centering on the exploits of Meyer Shank Racing and branching into discussions about the IndyCar Series and IMSA sports car series in particular, and all auto racing in general. The Pataskala, Ohio-based MSR has full time entries in both IndyCar and IMSA this 2020 season. What makes this interesting is Shank, former driver turned full-time team owner in the late 1990s, has never shied from speaking his mind. And his relationship with May, who started covering motorsports in the early 1980s, goes back decades. What they talked about off the record from time to time through the year just might find itself on the audio now. And it promises to be a riveting season on track for MSR, co-owned by Sirius-XM Radio CEO Jim Meyer, so there should be plenty to discuss -- and with the hammer down -- on At Speed.
