This week’s podcast show guest is none other than driving superstar Mary Pozzi. An 11-time SCCA National Autocross Champion, autocrossers everywhere know, respect, and fear her as her skill behind the wheel is legendary!

She and her husband David Pozzi (a legend in his own right) are a husband and wife team of racers, and while Mary works for AAA during the day, her evenings and weekends are spent building and racing her ’73 Camaro as well as instructing others to drive better and faster. At the track Mary’s driving instruction is sought out on a regular basis by men and women alike. She’s likely never been to a track day and spent the entire time driving her own car as she’s too busy helping others!

Mary is a huge believer in driving education and would recommend to anyone that before they drop $10,000 on a hot engine that they instead invest a fraction of that and attend a driving school. She’s also one of the few people that I’ve met that truly understands the science and physics of the human body when behind the wheel, and how a simple thing like arm placement and steering wheel size can affect lap times.

She’s also a moderator on all of the popular forums related to Camaros and pro-touring, so look for her guidance there as well. I think you’ll really enjoy Mary’s personality as well. We spoke about a range of topics I never thought we’d ever get into, including horses, romance, and Toyota’s “unintended” acceleration problem!

Thanks for the interview, Mary! After our interview Brock Yates sent me a note that you and James Shipkas are driving the One Lap Camaro in the One Lap of America this year. I look forward to following your progress and hope you win the class this year (again)!
