Big Dreams Take Big Risks | Driving Up Pikes Peak with Caitlyn Singler | Caitlyn Singler

Video Description from YouTube:

How far would you go to chase a dream? And what happens when the risk is part of the journey?

In this special episode of Auto Care ON AIR: Carpool Conversations, Jacki Lutz is riding up Pikes Peak with professional race car driver Caitlyn Singler to talk about taking big risks, pursuing ambitious goals, and staying focused when the outcome isn’t guaranteed.

Caitlyn’s path to professional racing wasn’t traditional. She didn’t grow up karting—instead, she started with driver safety training, discovered autocross and high-performance track days, and eventually earned her racing license. After the Paradise, California fire destroyed her family’s home and hometown, her family made a life-changing decision: rather than simply rebuild what they had lost, they invested in their shared passion for motorsports.

Now, Caitlyn travels the world racing, and some day may event take on the Pike’s Peak International Hill Climb.

The conversation goes beyond racing, exploring the surprising parallels between motorsports and business, including:

🏁 Taking financial, professional and personal risks
🏁 Building a career around a big vision
🏁 Staying motivated when success isn’t guaranteed
🏁 Why focusing on your own growth can be more powerful than comparing yourself to others
🏁 What it takes to stay calm under pressure
🏁 The physical and mental demands of professional racing
🏁 Training for G-forces, endurance and intense concentration
🏁 Why Pikes Peak is one of the most challenging and unique races in motorsports
🏁 The importance of pursuing a dream, even when other people don’t understand it

Caitlyn also shares an important perspective on what winning really means and why sometimes success is simply knowing you gave everything you had to the dream.

And yes… this entire conversation takes place while driving up a mountain with some very unforgiving drop-offs. 😅

What big risk are you willing to take for the life you want?
