Jeremy Shaw has been a staple in the motorsports journalism and broadcasting world for over 50 years. He’s also been a major component of helping get young American drivers support via the Team USA scholarship program. We bumped into Shaw at a Vintage Auto Racing Association (VARA) event at Willow Springs International Raceway in March of 2026 where he fills us in on his story. By the way, he’s also transitioned to race car driver as he was competing in his Merlyn Formula Ford over the weekend. He’s a humble guy that’s made a career out of giving readers and listeners the story from the race track to the paddock and beyond.  Enjoy!
