WATCH: Meet Justin Putzier, a motor sports content creator from Iowa

By Amie Rivers

June 5, 2025

Justin Putzier, an Iowa content creator, loves racing and motor sports. He’s been to race tracks all over the Midwest, and interviews current and former racers on his YouTube show “Full Throttle with JP.” And he does it all with cerebral palsy, a disorder that affects body movement and muscle coordination.

“I do have CP,” he said. “[But] I want to come across as someone very interesting that might have very interesting questions.”

Support Our Cause

Thank you for taking the time to read our work. Before you go, we hope you'll consider supporting our values-driven journalism, which has always strived to make clear what's really at stake for Iowans and our future.

Since day one, our goal here at Iowa Starting Line has always been to empower people across the state with fact-based news and information. We believe that when people are armed with knowledge about what's happening in their local, state, and federal governments—including who is working on their behalf and who is actively trying to block efforts aimed at improving the daily lives of Iowan families—they will be inspired to become civically engaged.
