BREAK/FIX the Motorsports & Vehicle Enthusiast Podcast
Leisure:Automotive
Being the owner and driver of a sports car team during the heyday of sports cars racing in the late ‘70s and early ‘80s can be challenging, but also very rewarding.
Competing part-time in both the World Sportscar Championship and IMSA GT Championship. During 1978 he accomplished a win at the Sebring 12 hours and along with veteran racer Brian Redman and Bobby Rahal, our guest Bob Garretson won the 24 Hours of Daytona. Despite not winning another race that season, He won the first ever awarded World Endurance Championship for Drivers title in 1981. He sold his team and retired from racing shortly thereafter… but that’s just the beginning.
Returning to co-host this episode is Mike Carr, who some of you might remember from our Randy Lanier episode.
This episode is part of our ROAD TO SUCCESS SERIES - inspiring stories that help shape the future of the autosphere.
