Default C4AL #48: How Randy Pobst build a 30 Plus Year Racing Career - and Counting!

He Everyone!

It would seem it's been a while since I've posted a Cars For A Living show here. I try to only focus on the Pro-Touring specific ones, so this episode should be a good one.



The featured guest was road course racer, Randy Pobst. A lot of you will recognize Randy as the chase driver of the Mercedes wagon from the 2013 Optima Ultimate StreetCar Invitational. He worked his way into a driving career by starting out of SCCA autocross in the early 1980's, and he's been racing ever since.

Hope you enjoy it!

-Rob K

Randy was very gracious during this interview and asked every question I threw at him with full honesty.
Typo!

The coolest part about Randy was that he could run over most of the cars out there last year - and he's just cruising around in a wagon... One hell of a good wagon to be sure... but still....

What a great attitude and dream job Randy has.

Rob, A little constructive criticism. The intro is to long, the interview is to long. While it's very interesting, way more interesting to you, I bet 5% of folks listen to the entire interview. I enjoyed it and barely made it half way.

Nailed Randy and the wagon at OUSCI.



What impressed me was his times in the top five finishers cars, I think the only driver/car combo he didn't better was Popp.

Randy is such a Good Guy!

Whoever said Good Guys finish last was wrong!
