Ep. 258 | Christian Eckes

Fresh off a big win with his new team, Christian Eckes shares how they celebrated; what an early win does for Eckes; what the win does for a team who had never won before; if the fast start has been a surprise; delivering a first win for Bill McAnally; why it was a hard offseason; having a chip on his shoulder and being out to prove something; what kind of work Eckes can do to be better with McAnally; what a team can do for a new driver coming in; taking the next step with multiple wins in a season; telling the team he came to win races and championships; what Vegas showed Eckes about the team; what his responsibility is with a growing team; being a mentor to a rookie teammate and passing along lessons; fitting into the Chevrolet camp; why the Truck Series is so hard for younger drivers; the good thing about going from ARCA to Trucks; truck racing being as crazy as they look; the meaning behind his helmet design; an update on the golf game and it being a draw for drivers.
