GHiT 0096:  Eric Rood is our Special Guest

Eric Rood from the 24 Hours of Lemons racing series reviews his history and the upcoming Lemons series, especially the rally events.

Eric Rood is our guest on this episode where we review his car history, the upcoming 2020 Lemons races and especially the Rally events.  We first met Eric when he was judging one of our races.  Alan quickly knew all about him after he visited him 4 times.  In addition to being an awesome judge, he has written for several automotive sites and currently helps steer the direction of the 24 Hours of Lemons series, especially their social media presence and the Lemons rallies.  If you see Eric, please ask him about touring with Ozzy!  (Details are in the first three minutes of our show)
