About this episode

Myles Rowe is on a mission to rewrite the history books. The rising star isn't just aiming for a full-time seat in the NTT INDYCAR Series—he has his sights set on the ultimate prize: becoming the first Black driver in history to win the iconic Indianapolis 500. In this episode, Myles sits down with us to talk about his drive to break barriers at the highest levels of open-wheel racing. We dive deep into his unique mindset, his natural flair for high-speed ovals, and the mentorship of INDYCAR champion Will Power, who stepped up at a crucial moment in Myles’ career when funding was scarce. Plus, Myles pulls back the curtain on one of the most remarkable drives in modern racing history—his masterclass performance at Gateway, where he charged from dead last (24th) all the way to 1st place, making 29 on-track passes using a bold high line nobody else dared to touch.
