Hey Ed...i am a big fan of Randy! Road Atlanta used to host the SCCA Valvoline Runoffs...which was the biggest race of the year for sports car racing. 24 different classes (everything from showroom stock to open wheel formula cars) would compete in a 18 lap sprint race. Thats where i saw Randy run...and i remember him because he was that good. Followed him through the ranks as he raced in IMSA as well. Phenomenal driver! Thanks for getting him on the channel!

Randy is the car whisperer. He certainly knows how to illustrate what it's like to experience certain cars.

I would love for Randy to drive a Koenigsegg and talk about his experience.

Mr. Pobst has a way of speaking that transports the listener into the car with him. Awesome commentary.

You can tell Randy really likes the Pagani cause he is really aggressive when he talks about it

Randy is definitely the American Tiff Needell. Both the most down to earth, interesting racing legends that will ever be! Now we just need Needell in the vinwiki chair!

I met Randy briefly at a special Glacier Lakes Quattro Club track weekend in 2004. He is so enthusiastic and welcoming to motorsports fans. It's thrilling to see him continue killing it. I didn't sign up fast enough for a passenger hot lap with him, but I did get to see him drift my close friend's father around in his GT3. I'll never forget the ecstatic grins through those windows.

This is absolutely amazing. Paganis are my favorite cars. Would have never thought it could hang with the holy trinity on track.

Wow I’ve actually always wondered this also about pagani compared to the others 😃 I guess now we know it’s more than rolling art! Thanks Randy 🤪

Woah never new Randy Pobst lived in GA. My buddy actually saw that guy's LaFerrari in Sandy Springs not too long ago. Cool to know he has the whole collection 😯

Randy on vinwiki is absolutely gold! I could listen to him talk about cars all day every day. It was very interesting to get to hear someone as knowledgeable as he, talk about pagani like that. I always wondered how they really were. Not just some idiot talking about aero grip while going 62 mph obviously not even getting remotely close to speeds that would have aero play a part in handling. Great video.

C7 brakes might be their most impressive feature. Insane stopping power and feel.

Can someone put Randy in a Zonda R?!👀

As a lot of people have mentioned Randy is one of the coolest cats on the block. Amazing talent and really seems down to earth, not to mention his love of bikes. No matter what channel or where I see him I always know its gonna be good, the excitement he has while telling these stories is intoxicating.

Last year Mr. Pobst was invited to come out west and hang with amateur racers at the Lucky Dog Racing event at The Ridge (Shelton Washington). Lucky Dog is a west-coast series that spun off Chump Car which, in turn, evolved from 24 Hours of Lemons. It is more serious racing and less goofing around than Lemons. Low and behold he showed up for some seat time. I thought it quite cool that a professional racer with celebrity status would spend his weekend with amateur enthusiasts driving their Craigslist-sourced cars. Hope you enjoyed it, Randy.
