THIS IS THE GET IN THE GAME PODCAST
WITH SCOTT LINEBRINK

Aric Almirola is a NASCAR driver currently racing part-time with Joe Gibbs Racing. Following in the footsteps of his grandfather, dirt sprint-car driver Sam Rodriguez, Almirola races in the NASCAR Xfinity Series as well as NASCAR’s Truck Series.

His first career win came in the 2014 Coke Zero 400 at Daytona International Speedway. He won the Foxwoods Resort Casino 301 in 2021, and in 2022 had seven top-10 finishes, including a fifth-place result at the Daytona 500. Almirola began racing nationally at the age of 14 and made his NASCAR debut in the Sun Belt Weekly Racing Division in 2002. He finished second in the Rookie of the Year standings that year.

Today on the podcast, Scott Linebrink talks to Aric Almirola about his walk with Jesus, serving and giving back, and how racing has tested his faith.
