This week on Racers Unchained, Paul Tracy sits down with legendary Trans-Am icon Paul Gentilozzi for one of the wildest origin stories you’ll ever hear.
Before the championships.
Before the Daytona wins.
Before the Hall of Fame.
There were midnight “borrowed” cars, 4-speed joyrides, and a 13-year-old kid who couldn’t wait to drive anything with wheels.
Paul Gentilozzi takes us through:
* The rainy race where he grabbed the lead… only to spin multiple times and end up six feet off the ground in a tree 🌧️🌲
* The heated on-track rivalry (and championship battle) with Tommy Kendall
* Why being “just a driver” matters more than labels
* His early drag racing days at Onondaga Dragway
* The moment his dad caught him red-handed at McDonald’s with shoe-polish race numbers on the windshield
With:
🏆 5 Trans-Am championships
🏁 31 Trans-Am wins
🏎 11 IMSA victories
⏱ 2 overall wins at the 24 Hours of Daytona
🏅 Hall of Fame Trans-Am status
Paul Gentilozzi proves that racing greatness isn’t manufactured — it’s wired in from the beginning.
Raw stories. Real rivalries. Zero filters.
This is Racers Unchained.
