Episode 18: Prepping Your Car for Rallycross with Brandon Burgler

Brandon Burgler is the co-owner of the Car Spa, an automotive repair shop in Bellevue, WA. More importantly, he’s an excellent rallycross driver that is currently leading the Stock All Wheel Drive championship. 

In this episode, he talks us through the basics that everyone needs to know about prepping their car for a race. We go through the basic checkpoints, when to work with a shop vs. doing it yourself and how to make sure your tires are holding up. Brandon’s approach is very laid back and we talk about being willing to get your hands dirty without fear of making a mistake. 

Brandon shares so much great information from oil selection to how to make your own skid plate. His experience as a racer and a technician make him the best rallycross mechanical advisor you could ask for!
