Exhaust #51: Cianciarulo and Wey

Jason Weigandt cornered Adam Cianciarulo and his coach Nick Wey for an in-depth conversation inside the Monster Energy/Pro Circuit Kawasaki truck. Adam has made great strides this season as he battles for the 250SX West Region Championship, and he gives Wey, a longtime pro racer with plenty of podiums on his résumé, credit for a lot of it. But what do they work on? Weigandt pressed for specifics and learned about Adam managing the emotions of racing, how Wey presses his buttons—and then even Mitch Payton gets in on the conversation, comparing the modern racer to the days when Wey was a racer himself.
