Send me a message. I would love to know where you are listening to me from!!

Hello again fellow Racing Ears,

In this episode Rick and Trent were able to have a memorable conversation with Joe Catron.  They were recently all together at the Lucky Dog Racing League 8 Hour Enduro at Sears Point International Raceway on Saturday February 12 2022 where the racing team finished 8th out of 80 cars in the Vintage Exotics Porsche 997.  The Vintage Exotics Team on that Saturday was Joe Catron, Lenny Loftin, Rick Knoop, Mike Halo, Mary Lou, and Trent Barr.  

Joe Catron is originally from Southern California where he has roots in the Pomona California area at the beginning point of when the Pomona Fairplex racing circuit started back in the 1950's.  He has been around racing cars for a long time and he is still involved in racing in one way or another.  He is a driving instructor, racing team manager, racing driver, and is also an experienced yacht captain.   

Joe Catron Sr. was a racing driver who raced between 1956 and 1961.  He raced a Jaguar XK120, Simca Aronde, Volvo, Porsche 356 Super Speedster, Speedster, and 356 1600.  He also was very involved at Catron Motors which was a Volkswagen and Porsche dealership on East Holt Avenue in Pomona California.  

Thank you very much for listening to The Racing Ear Podcast.
