The OSUSC Podcast – Episode #144
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!

2022 – Charlotte Results & Recap!
Our first 2022 event is now in the books! The big news from the event is that the dreaded “track crossing” procedure schedule never had to happen thanks to some heads up help on Wednesday by Jeff Luckritz with the Trans Am series. Two months worth of work was all reconfigured in about two hours and made for a much more enjoyable and efficient time for everyone!
Tune in for a full rundown of the event that was, complete with a list of each award and class winner. On to Sonoma!
-Rob & Jimi
