In 1998 Marc Podkowik decided to start racing and quickly entering many races with his Honda Civic, ever since he has had the erge to be the fastest in his town. Through out the early 2000's, he was able to hold his own with  top Qualifier, to top 4 finishes and even winning the national events at Moroso in 2000. Marc has always looked to make the most power with his Honda motors from building his first LS/Vtec to now running the more ever popular K-Series motor in his new Civic. In late 2007 Marc formed GP1 racing with fellow friend Sandy Getta and has decided to run a majority of the Nopi national tour, with some stops on the BOTI tour and IFO tour.
