    23: Arnie Gonzales - Founder of the Pro Touring Truck Shootout

    Arnie Gonzales is the owner and founder of OBS Chevy Racing and the Pro Touring Truck Shootout.

    22: Jason Wilcox - TCI Engineering

    TCI Engineering has manufactured chassis and suspension components for a wide variety of cars and trucks since 1974. In this episode I talk with Jason Wilcox, the marketing Manager for TCI Engineering.  We discussed the history of TCI and how the products have changed over the years. Likely the best part of Jason’s role at TCI is helping his customers fine tune their suspension, often driving their vehicles to event or class wins. Some of the amazing vehicles we talk about are Wally Logan’s 1970 C10 built by Barry’s Speed Shop, Alfredo Rios’s K5 Blazer known as banana hammock built by his shop Auto Drive Collision, and lastly, the Race Deuce owned by Tanya Toothman built by James Crosby.

    20: Nick McCrabb - 1979 Chevy Camaro

    Nick McCrabb has owned his 1979 Camaro for 20 years and just recently decided to change the car from the stereotypical hotrod with 15” Cragars and ¾ race cam to a pro touring, autocross capable car.  Being active-duty US Airforce, Nick has had limited seat time but really enjoys the sport and plans to continuously improve the car when his time allows. We discuss the history of the car and the improvements he’s made so far. I’m excited to see another classic muscle car not only convert to a pro-touring build but also get used on an autocross. Thank you for your service, Nick!

    19: Bonus Episode - SCCA Street Survival

    Tim Beechuck is the SCCA Street Survival National Program Manager and Sean Connell is the St. Louis Region Street Survival Regional Chair. Tim and Sean provide an overview of the program and how beneficial it can be for new, teen drivers.  This episode is off topic from my normal content, so I’m releasing it as a bonus episode to help promote the program. I’m sure many of my listeners are either parents, grandparents, aunts, or uncles and can appreciate how dangerous the road can be for new drivers.

    18: Super Dave Schotz - 2022 Chevy Camaro

    In this episode, I’m joined by SUPER Dave Schotz and we discuss his successful 2024 racing season in his 2022 Camaro. Dave won CAM-C at the SCCA Nationals in Lincoln, NE followed with a GT Class win and 2nd overall at Optima’s Search for the Ultimate Streetcar Invitation in Las Vegas. We discuss some challenges with modifying a modern car, so it appeals to the Design and Engineering judges at OUSCI along with competing across multiple series that have different rule sets. IT’S A PILE OF TROPHIES…. IT’S AN ORANGE CAMARO….. IT’S SUPER DAAAAAVVVVVE!

    Peter Bergman has dedicated much of his professional career to developing and selling high quality suspension components for torsion bar based Mopar suspension through his business, Bergman Autocraft. Peter’s 1971 Dodge Dart serves as a test bed for all the parts he sells. He has owned the Dart for 40 years and has put nearly 200,000 miles on the car during this time. Although the Dart may look like a trailer queen show car, Peter has used the Dart for Optima events, open track days, Moparty Grand Champion, SCCA autocross, and Power Tour.
