Welcome to the Legend of the Death Race Podcast, where you’ll hear the legends of past Death Racers, new and old.

In the forty-first episode, we catch up with Jesus Chavez as he recalls his experience from the 2014 Summer and Mexico Death Races. His legend includes creative ways to train for the Vermont slopes in the flatlands of the Midwest, with a throwback to one of the original Death Race training camps. Most importantly, Jesus talks about his greatest inspiration and describes the unique way he keeps them at the forefront of his mind as he tackled the grueling challenges that are synonymous with The Death Race. Tune in and enjoy the show.
