The Off-Road Racer Podcast
Episode 69: Eric Pond
In this episode of the Off-Road Racer Podcast, I sit down with vintage off-road racer Eric Pond. Back in 2017, Eric pitted for a friend at the Mint 400, and has been hooked ever since. Now, Eric races a 1969 Bronco called ‘Iron Casket’, with Vigilante Racing and Queen City Off-Road. Eric has been competing in off-road races as a passion, and also as an opportunity to raise funds for the Cancer Research Institute (CRI), as Eric has been battling cancer for the last 3 years. His battle with cancer has given off-road racing a new dimension, serving as a passion and goal when working through treatment, and always something to look forward to. So far, Eric has raised over $14,000 for CRI through racing. Today, Eric has been racing as much as he can, making unforgettable memories and friendships, and leaving cancer in the dust one mile at a time. I’m your host Matt Martelli, and this IS the Off-Road Racer Podcast.
