If you want to get into motorsports – this is the episode to listen to!!
Want to learn more about Time Trials events – this is the episode to listen to!
So why listen to this episode? My guest, Vinnie Taibi, does an awesome job of explaining the progression from volunteer to being an on track racer. Plus he walks us through what Time Trials event looks like.
Vinnie is the Social Media Director and Time Trials Chair for the Indianapolis Region of the SCCA and is the new Great Lakes Division Time Trial Admin. Man, he keeps busy!
We talk about how Vinnie got into motorsports which was, of course, influenced by family as it many times is. We also cover the cars that Vinnie has owned and there’s a great Integra story in there too.
We need more people like Vinnie in our sport. He’s not afraid to share and try new ideas. He’s generous with his time and he has lots of energy.
One of the best quotes from Vinnie is, “Come from the cars and stay for the people.” This is really what’s it about. It’s about having fun with others, building relationships and helping each other get better.
