Who is Jim Busby?
Growing up in Pasadena, Jim was immersed in Southern California’s car culture. From his ‘Hot Rod’ roots, he founded ‘The Beach Boys,’ a famous 1960’s drag racing team. Jim moved into road racing with Dan Gurney’s All-American Racers; he had tremendous success racing Porsche 911s before transitioning to the formidable 935 in IMSA.
