Kevin Oldham states in his weekly article, "Absolutely one of the best interviews on our Racin’ With D.O. Monday night radio shows; if you give Johnny “Hot Rod” Heydenreich a microphone, look out.  An employee of East Enterprises since the late ‘90s, Hot Rod’s ears are often subject to many juicy rumors as he crafts bodywork for the latest additions to the Beastie Boys fold.  Not able to divulge such top-secret rumors, Heydenreich did say that because of his late season drives in Tom Burkey’s Avenger sprint car; his interest in racing is revived after five years of focusing on the Silver Crown series.  Searching for someone to partner up with his Pittsburgh, PA based Sharon Duda team; Johnny said that he wants a winged sprint car ride for Florida in addition to seeking out a horse for weekly wingless wars next summer, possibly reassembling one of his older dirt midget rides as well."  Kevin's articles can be found at www.hoseheads.com/ko.html.  Thanks, Kevin!  You are way too cool!  D.O., we love your show!  For those of you know familiar with the Racin' with D.O. radio show, it is broadcast live in Indianapolis every Monday night and can be heard on the local radio station, as well as across the world via the internet.
