Inside Groove Supermodified Podcast - Episode 121: Winnerviews with Andrew Schartner and Josh Sokolic
Welcome to episode 121 of the Inside Groove Supermodified Podcast, brought to you by Steering Wheel Nation. In this extra-distance episode, our host Tom Baker is joined by two of the most recent winners at the Oswego Speedway - SBS Winner Andrew Schartner and 350 Supermodified winner Josh Sokolic.
In his own words, Andrew Schartner held off Noah Ratcliffe in one of the most exciting races in recent Oswego Speedway history on Saturday to get his first win in six years in the SBS division. No longer a full-time racer, Andrew flies up from Charlotte, N.C. as often as he can to compete at Central New York's renown 5/8-mile asphalt track. He and Tom talk about the win and reflect on a career that had Andrew at 17 years of age on the Board of Directors of a racing club before moving from dirt to pavement to begin an impressive run that continues to this day at Oswego.
Josh Sokolic has won twice so far in the 350 Supermodified division this year at "The Big O". He moved up last year from the SBS class to the faster, more nimble 350 Supers and talks about how that move has opened up his driving style and taught him to be more aggressive. He surprises Tom with the answer to the question of what he would change in the 350 division if he could, and the differences in what is required from a driver to succeed in SBS and 350.
This week's "What's in a number?" segment features the No. 21, opening with some discussion about the wife of a No. 21 co-owner performing for the crowd on Classic Weekend in the mid-70's.
