After years of watching and enjoying the racing and car scene, Colt Beck was ready to build a new ride. But he had to overcome a lot of obstacles, including the car being stolen, but with a lot of drive and some help from friends and sponsors, Colt got it all done in time for the 2024 edition of the PRI show.

“We’ve taken it to some incredible places,” said Colt. “The car has proven to be more than just a race car. It’s a reminder of the hard work, the setbacks, and the triumphs — and it’s now ready for whatever the road brings next.”

“Driving the car isn’t just about the thrill of the road; it’s about connecting with others who share the same passion and helping inspire them to chase their own dreams too.”

Hobbies can be a release from the stress of everyday life, something we enjoy with friends and family, and even, a way to cope and redirect your energy after dealing with bad times.

For Yvonnda Hutchins, her 2014 Chevrolet SS 4 door sedan has been a beacon of positivity on the drag strip, and a recent appearance at Sick At The Rock may expand that beacon a bit more.

For Yvonnda, her heartbreak left her needing an outlet to direct her focus and energy, and husband Alon provided the solution. “My husband told me I needed to find a hobby to keep my mind busy,” said Yvonnda. “He has drag raced for years, and we were at a race not long after my daughter’s passing, and my husband told me that I needed to try racing. I was apprehensive, but he was eventually able to convince me to try it, and I was hooked.”
