hi

Chandler Premo and his 2009 E92 BMW M3

 

Feature Interview – Chandler Premo

2009 BMW M3

In this episode of the OSUSC podcast we were fortunate enough to bring on Chandler Premo for another of our in depth “car and driver” feature interviews. Chandler’s first OSUSC event was in Bowling Green, KY where he and his father attended together. They fell in love with the series, the fun, and the drivers and have decided to run as many events as possible this year! (As a cool side, note, the learned of the OSUSC Series information from their local Advanced Auto Parts store!)

At just 22 years old he’s likely one of the youngest drivers in the field, and while his BMW is modified some it’s still a VERY usable daily driver. He spent four years in AMA motocross in high school but had very little experience racing a car. In fact, the autocross and speed stop events were his first of either kind and his first run on the road course marked his second time doing such a thing….ever! Despite all that he finished very well with the following stats:

-4th in Speed Stop Challenge (.009 behind 3rd Place in Speed Stop)

-9th Overall in Autocross (GT)

-7th overall in the Road Course (out of 28 cars in the GT class)

-Overall: Finished 7th in GT Class

Chandler and his family will be running at multiple other OSUSC events this year taking advantage of the Double Points events especially. You can contact Chandler as well as follow his adventures via his Facebook page.

Thanks for the great interview, Chandler!
