Welcome to the Show!
Welcome to the Optima Search For the Ultimate Street Car Series Podcast! This show is produced twice-per-month show and will 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!
The 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!

NCM Results!
As we previewed in Episode 69, the NCM event was fast, hot, and fun! The great Wally Olczak stepped in as Race Director, both for this event, and for this episode of the show. We gave Jimi the day off (i.e. he was off getting married) – so this one is pretty zany. ;)
Results are below with full details of the event in the show itself. Congrats to all participants!
