The OSUSC Podcast – Episode #1

Welcome to the Show!

Welcome to the FIRST ever edition of the Optima Search For the Ultimate Street Car Series Podcast! Now that OSUSC is into it’s second season we thought that a full twice–per-month show would be a great way to keep people informed on everything going on, from rules discussions, to event coverage, and to feature interviews with competitors and people of interest!

This show is hosted by myself (Rob Kibbe) and Race Director Jimi Day. Our goal is to bring you all of the latest and greatest information possible…plus have plenty of fun along with way. Feel free to e-mail us with feedback and questions, and we’ll work as many of them can into the show!

We’ll have the show send to iTunes, Stitcher, and all of your favorite podcast platforms as soon as possible. Here’s to 2015!
