Radio Impound Podcast
by Gotti Jr
Radio Impound Podcast is where RC racing, good laughs, and a little chaos all come together. Gotti is joined by JConcepts CEO Jason Ruona to cover major races, industry news, new products, racers, tracks, and whatever else is happening around the hobby. From the pits to the driver stand, RIPCAST brings stories, interviews, race talk, and plenty of laughs, along with Jason’s unique perspective from inside the RC racing industry. We try to stay on topic... but somehow that rarely goes according to plan. 😂 And you never know when Salty Servo might show up and make things even more interesting. Whether you've been racing for decades or you're just getting into RC, pull up a pit chair and join the RIPHEADS Nation. POWER. ATTITUDE. CHAOS
