JR Hildebrand and Scotto Have Some Ideas! ","html":"","width":"100%","height":180,"duration":9953,"description":"This week VERY VEHICULAR welcomes JR Hildebrand: Race Driver and Veteran of THAT Indy 500 Crash back in 2011. Scotto and JR get philosophical as they break down the maybes and what-ifs they’ve each encountered through the many forks in life’s road. Mainly though, they’re here to figure out the answer to motorsports’ entertainment problem. Drawing from his deep well of experience behind the wheel, JR’s manifesto for setting racing ‘off’ rather than on the straight and narrow is compelling. Scotto, as ever, brings both a viewer’s and a director’s eye to bear on the problem at hand, because at the end of the day, don’t we all deserve to be entertained?
