Listen Later

After the food coma that was Thanksgiving 2022, the boys are back in studio this week dropping the latest installment of the RTS Podcast. Mike and Marc kick off the festivities with a quick rundown of things to come throughout the month of December for RTS. Plus, a recap of Dirt in December out at the dome in St. Louis, High Limits Racing series announcements this week, SRX moving to Thursday Night Thunder on ESPN and the affect all this could have on racing throughout the country. 

And for the main course on this weeks episode, Marc and Mike are joined by the 2022 UMSS Traditional Sprint Car Champion, driver of the number 6, Jake Kouba. A long time driver throughout his life and most recently racing in the UMSS for the better part of a decade now, Jake accomplished the ultimate goal in 2022 by winning the championship. It came down to the final night of season at Cedar Lake Speedway between himself and our very own co-host, Mike Mueller. Jake and Mike go in depth on what was going on behind the scenes for both drivers heading into that pivotal evening. But, before all that, we get the inside scope from the driver of the number 6. Where did racing begin for Jake? How did the passion for racing all start out? With the Kouba name being well known throughout the region with years and years of racing connected to the family name. The 2022 champ takes us down a bit of memory lane to where it all began. Plus, a recap of his 2022 season and a look ahead for the number 6 team in 2023. 

All this and much more on episode 83 of the RTS Podcast!
