On this episode of The Pit Box Podcast we were joined by Aston Martin factory driver, Nürburgring 24hr winner, & overall good guy David Pittard! Sit back & relax as David takes us through the story of his career from the start of his career in go karts to now as a factory driver. He has hung his hat at the Nürburgring & chronicles not only how the idea to go there but tells us a funny taxi story & ultimately about his triumph last year at the 24hr race. If you ever wondered what its like climbing the ladder to the top of the sports car food chain in a somewhat untraditional way, take a listen to this podcast.
