We cover a lot in this episode; John's racing background, life balance, SCCA competition license, and how to get to run offs.
Josh has been involved in amateur motorsports for about 15 years with a variety organizations, types of cars and events. He's currently attempting to check off “Racing a Formula car at Indy” off his racing bucket list which means he'll be at SCCA National Championship Runoffs!
Like many of our guests he was introduced to motorsports through family. At age ten he had a dirt bike and had the itch to go fast and have fun.
He started drag racing in 1998 with his first car which was a 1989 Honda Accord. Then he moved onto autocross, time trials, hill climbs and now he's road racing.
