In this episode of Get on Track, Jim Adams takes us on a deep dive into his latest experiences in the "Chasing Tenths" series. It’s a candid, no-holds-barred look at what it’s really like to go from dreaming about racing to making it a reality in the Spec E46 class. Jim reflects on everything from the excitement of his first sprint race to the tough lessons learned along the way, all while sharing some great stories about the mentors and racers who’ve helped shape his journey.

If you’re someone chasing big goals—whether on the track or in life—you’ll love this episode. It’s full of insights on preparation, perseverance, and how small, consistent improvements (aka “chasing tenths”) can add up to massive wins.
