Ep.209 – René Rast

René Rast is largely considered one of the greatest sportscar drivers of the modern era. Hailing from Germany, René grew up in the traditional European junior ranks before finding his way into the famed Porsche Supercup, eventually launching him on a career path that would lead to a factory ride with Audi Sport, and with wins at Daytona, Spa, Nurburgring, and most notably THREE DTM CHAMPIONSHIPS IN FOUR YEARS. Note: At the time of recording he was with Audi, however he has since been named to BMW’s factory squad as well as McLaren in Formula E. Lunch was served at Dancing Avocado in Daytona Beach, FL, with the song “Crossbow” by OK Otter taking us out. Thanks again to Continental Tire and Acura for making it all happen.
