6:30
SPEAKER_02: Like, you ask Aaron about our business and about everything.

6:46
SPEAKER_02: I'm not trying to be you gotta be open-minded, you gotta be open-minded.
6:50
SPEAKER_02: You know, any successful business.
6:52
SPEAKER_01: We don't do it for us.
6:53
SPEAKER_01: We do it, we do it for everyone else who is involved, who has a role to play, who's who's come by the events, who's gone to a car show.
7:00
SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
7:02
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, it's essentially it's a story to tell.
7:03
SPEAKER_07: Oh, right on.
7:04
SPEAKER_07: What makes y'all feel like or or seem that y'all are on this section of the car culture or whatever?
7:11
SPEAKER_07: Is it like, I mean, so do you have to be like old school?
7:15
SPEAKER_07: You know what I mean?
7:15
SPEAKER_07: I I'm not sure I'm not sure.
7:17
SPEAKER_05: It's very different.
7:18
SPEAKER_05: How it is.
7:18
SPEAKER_05: I think like I remember when I was younger and I I was just getting into cars, uh everyone would meet downtown at the at the tea heads.
7:26
SPEAKER_05: That was the spot.
7:27
SPEAKER_05: Like, that was there's nowhere else to go except for that spot.
7:31
SPEAKER_07: And so it's for people that are just working on their cars, like their cars, like to put money into their cars.
7:36
SPEAKER_05: Back then it was crazy because you had low rider guys, you had like truck guys, you had the imports was just you know starting to grow.
7:43
SPEAKER_05: So you had like it was still a show thing for import styles because nobody was fast yet.
7:47
SPEAKER_03: So well there there were some, but it wasn't, yeah, but it was rare, yeah.
7:51
SPEAKER_05: Like back in that day, like like any Mustang Camaro, you know, like they made like 300 horsepower max back in the day, you know.
7:59
SPEAKER_05: And a lightweight civic with a B16 swap was like dominating the streets, you know what I mean?
8:04
SPEAKER_05: Like it was crazy, and this is like 200 horsepower, but it was so light, it was fast.
8:08
SPEAKER_05: And horsepower was was expensive back then, you know.
8:11
SPEAKER_05: Nowadays, you got 40k, you can get 500 horsepower.
8:16
SPEAKER_05: You know, go to any dealership.
8:18
SPEAKER_01: How much you pay for his horsepower?
8:20
SPEAKER_01: Well, it's not go there.
8:22
SPEAKER_07: I mean that's not a subject, so not on the top.
8:25
SPEAKER_07: So this so it's a non-old school way of souping up your car.
8:31
SPEAKER_07: Yeah, do you know what I'm saying?
8:33
SPEAKER_07: Yeah, as opposed to like the old way, like you have your I'm thinking like Mustangs and you know, muscle cars.
8:39
SPEAKER_02: So now computers are involved in so much in cars and stuff like that that you can't the technologies.
8:44
SPEAKER_02: So yeah, there's no one of my best one of my best friends is a tuner and we both use him, but yeah, it's not like an old school carburetor where your cousin can come and hey yeah, let's go tune it.
8:56
SPEAKER_02: Yeah, let me adjust the tune real quick on the carburetor.
8:58
SPEAKER_02: And oh yeah, okay, that sounds good.
9:04
SPEAKER_05: And then you plug it in, you gain 200 horsepower.
9:06
SPEAKER_05: Yeah, you know what I mean?
9:06
SPEAKER_05: Yeah, that's how it is now.
9:08
SPEAKER_02: Yeah, because everything now is is like that.
9:10
SPEAKER_02: So, you know, and there's people you don't just go to homeboy down the street and be like, oh, okay, hey man, can you hook me up?
9:17
SPEAKER_02: Because it's not that you don't trust him, it's not that he doesn't know because he can know, he can do whatever.
9:21
SPEAKER_02: But this dude, you know, my best friend Ben, he makes a business off of tuning, and that's specifically what he does is tuning.
9:29
SPEAKER_02: He does fabrication and other stuff as well, too.
9:32
SPEAKER_02: But he his main thing is tuning, so it's like you're gonna go to the dude that has tuned 60 to 75 other cars, you know, and like, oh, okay, this dude knows what he's doing, he's got it down, because you know, we're not just in a going for a little street cruise or whatever, you know.
9:48
SPEAKER_02: My car gets ragged on for eight to nine hours, you know, a day.
9:52
SPEAKER_02: And we're going to a drift event, so I'm not gonna just sit there and be like, oh yeah, that pool was good.
9:56
SPEAKER_02: No, it's like, okay, was that pool good?
9:58
SPEAKER_02: And and you gotta research every little thing wrong because if so, there's a fail safe points, there's everything, you know.
10:04
SPEAKER_02: Frank has a ton of money into his computer system for fail safes because the money that you put into the motor is not just uh yeah, I'm not just gonna trust this guy down the street that's yeah, okay, yeah, he's doing a couple cars, yeah, cool.
10:16
SPEAKER_02: But it's like, no, we're putting these cars through hell and doing what we have to do.
10:20
SPEAKER_02: So I'm not just gonna, you know, tons of money.
10:24
SPEAKER_02: I don't want to get into that into the motor builds, but come coming back to the computer software, it's all sensors, computers now, and everything else.
10:31
SPEAKER_02: And you got the hot rod guys that you know still go do it, but even the the old hot rods now are all going to computers.
10:37
SPEAKER_02: Going that way, wow, everything.
10:39
SPEAKER_02: So the way it's evolved mechanically from back then to now, it's like there's so much genre of everything.
10:47
SPEAKER_07: What what's the okay?
10:49
SPEAKER_07: So I guess that's the hardest part of your current setup as far as like your car build or whatever, whatever.
10:54
SPEAKER_02: Yeah, yeah.
10:55
SPEAKER_02: There's a lot of dialing in.
10:56
SPEAKER_02: A lot of people don't see that.
10:58
SPEAKER_02: Uh you know, and I know Frank's going through a lot of it right now, figuring out what works and what goes on with everything.
11:04
SPEAKER_02: Because, you know, I I tell people people see my car and they're like, Oh yeah, I have this.
11:08
SPEAKER_02: I make that much horsepower, and it's like, cool.
11:10
SPEAKER_02: But dude, I have when you use it, when you use it.
11:14
SPEAKER_02: Yeah, how the suspension works, like tires, you know, arms, yeah, people are like, Oh, yeah, I have that setup, and it's like, ah, you do, but you don't, because I have hours and what works, what doesn't work.
11:28
SPEAKER_02: Okay, let's go this way, let's go that way.
11:29
SPEAKER_02: No, this doesn't work.
11:30
SPEAKER_02: Okay, and it's yeah, trial and error, like crazy trying to figure it out.
11:34
SPEAKER_01: And you're trying to get like 20 different things to line up all for the same goal.
11:39
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, that's that's what makes it hard because there's so much other things involved suspension, tires, so on, so forth, weight to make sense with the horsepower.
11:47
SPEAKER_01: You can just put a turbo on a car and oh, I have a thousand, but you're on factory brakes, factory suspension, you're not gonna put down a thousand.
11:53
SPEAKER_01: You're gonna you're not gonna, it's it's not usable at that point.
11:55
SPEAKER_01: And that's so it's it's the mass of everything, it's a collective of all of it to come together.
12:00
SPEAKER_02: That's what I tell Aaron.
12:01
SPEAKER_02: He's like, people, you know, we we'll tell you the formula and what it takes, but when it comes to dialing in for what you want, for what you do, for everything else, it's like, man, like it's it's a lot of timing that goes into this that people don't see like, oh yeah, I have this.
12:14
SPEAKER_02: No, yeah, okay, cool, but it's not that easy, man.
12:18
SPEAKER_01: I think it's one thing to get there to that level, it's another thing to maintain the vehicle to stay at that level.
12:23
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, yeah.
12:24
SPEAKER_01: So it's not just, oh, let me spend the the 40 grand.
12:27
SPEAKER_01: Okay, I'm good.
12:27
SPEAKER_01: It's okay.
12:28
SPEAKER_01: Here's 40 grand now, 15, 10, 15, 20 more.
12:33
SPEAKER_05: Oh blower end, blower transmission, yeah.
12:36
SPEAKER_05: You know, well to clutch.
12:37
SPEAKER_07: Yeah, definitely between the show car and uh oh yeah, one of the performance you know, me and Frank, we have this, we have this ongoing.
12:44
SPEAKER_02: We were at the dyno and we were getting our cars tuned by Ben and we're going through it and going through it all.
12:49
SPEAKER_02: And uh Frank, I made I made some I made like 580 is what I made on my car, and I was like mad, and I was like, no, like let's turn it down.
12:57
SPEAKER_02: Like, let's Frank's like, why would you want to turn that down?
13:02
SPEAKER_02: You don't understand.
13:03
SPEAKER_02: That's a lot.
13:04
SPEAKER_02: Like, I'm not trying to, yeah, it's cool.
13:06
SPEAKER_02: I'm not mad about the number.
13:07
SPEAKER_02: I'm mad, like, let's slower it down a little bit and like jam, bro.
13:10

25:15
SPEAKER_02: That's that's a cool thing.
25:17
SPEAKER_02: I think you don't you don't leave a car show or somewhere like that, at least kind of here in the car.
25:22

27:46
SPEAKER_02: You don't have to do that.
27:47
SPEAKER_02: I take advantage of that.
27:48
SPEAKER_02: Yeah, and Frank's one of the ones that take advantage of it.
27:50
SPEAKER_02: Imagine being outside right now in a car with no AC all day.

27:57
SPEAKER_05: So it's it's if you're gonna if you want to drive.

28:15
SPEAKER_05: He almost left me because I guess I guess.
28:17

28:19
SPEAKER_05: He already ate, and he was like, You're late.
28:21

28:22
SPEAKER_01: Sorry, man.
28:23
SPEAKER_01: Told me we'll be there at 8:30.
28:24
SPEAKER_01: All right, nine o'clock.
28:26
SPEAKER_01: I didn't know.
28:27
SPEAKER_01: I was like, Well, the paperwork says 10.
28:29
SPEAKER_01: No, no call, no show, 10 o'clock.
28:31
SPEAKER_07: Uh what's going on, you guys?
28:33
SPEAKER_07: Um, yeah, we we just cut off here.
28:34
SPEAKER_07: Let's uh go back and break.
28:36
SPEAKER_07: We should be live again.
28:37
SPEAKER_07: Just click on the little live circle on our Facebook page or check out our YouTube channel, Corpus Christi Originals.
28:44
SPEAKER_07: I think we left off uh uh so we'll just we're talking about uh the community and the different different meets that you guys have.
28:50
SPEAKER_07: But what does the city still need to uh better support car events and the community?
28:56
SPEAKER_00: People to show up on two.
28:59
SPEAKER_00: Honestly, we're back now.
29:01
SPEAKER_00: We're back.
29:01
SPEAKER_00: We're live.
29:02
SPEAKER_02: So so the city, so you're saying that the city if the city would help y'all put these on or allow y'all, then the city then that would help the I think it would help because like being low-key and everything, like Aaron says too, is like I mean, we got that ticket for sound ordinance, and then they were like, Yeah, build build a big wall and you can keep doing it.
29:18
SPEAKER_02: And it's like uh come to find out there was no ordinance for it anyways.
29:22
SPEAKER_02: Yeah, so being we found the loophole around it how many years later?
29:25
SPEAKER_02: Like eight years later.
29:27
SPEAKER_02: Well, we left.
29:27
SPEAKER_01: We found we moved out of town to Beaville and came back, and oh, y'all can.
29:33
SPEAKER_01: Y'all tell us no.
29:34
SPEAKER_01: So so no, it's not a real thing.
29:36
SPEAKER_01: Oh, okay.
29:37
SPEAKER_02: So seeing that thank God where we do it and how it's sanctioned and how it's everything, like we don't take the risk still because you know they'll find the loophole how they did the last time and go through everything.
29:47
SPEAKER_02: So it's like, no, that's why we're enforcing the muffler rules, we're enforcing everything else.
29:51
SPEAKER_07: I like to invite you're fighting against so yeah, and basically, yeah, not against the city, but against the reasons the city uses.
29:58
SPEAKER_02: Oh, yeah, and like which are sound, a lot of it's sound.
30:02
SPEAKER_02: It's all sound, man.
30:03
SPEAKER_02: And it's all sound.
30:04
SPEAKER_02: When I dealt with that, I made whenever in 2017 we got that man, I made phone call after phone call after phone call calling the city, showing up, trying to see like what do I need to do to you know bring this back and to do it, and and people don't understand like the hurdles that we had to go through to do this.
30:24
SPEAKER_02: But seeing all that and going through all that, and they're like, No, even the people um that do the uh jazz fest get calls and stuff like that, too.
30:34
SPEAKER_02: Yeah, so what what I would like to do, and and the only way legally, other than building a racetrack and doing something like that out in the Goonies or whatever, uh would be to do it in the C district, because now the C district, the sports entertainment area, I think is why that's called the Sports Entertainment and Art.
30:53
SPEAKER_02: And art, and art, okay.
30:55
SPEAKER_02: So sports entertainment and art now, there is no sound limits down there.
30:58
SPEAKER_02: Oh wow.
30:59
SPEAKER_02: So if we could do something like a Whataburger Field or somewhere like that, then that would like blow up.
31:04
SPEAKER_02: But I got that door closed a long time ago.
31:07
SPEAKER_02: Wow, before we bring it up.
31:09
SPEAKER_02: Yeah, so if we have, but it's hard, like you know, doing stuff, like I said, it's a skateboarding.
31:15
SPEAKER_02: Look how long it's finally taken to get skate parks normal in the city.
31:19
SPEAKER_05: Yeah, that's true.
31:20
SPEAKER_02: Like looking at it that way and everything else, like now everybody's cool with skate.
31:25
SPEAKER_02: You see a skate park in every city, but how long did that take for you know people to fight for that?
31:29
SPEAKER_07: And then it's like, why did it take so long?
31:31
SPEAKER_02: Yeah, yeah, why did it take so long?
31:32
SPEAKER_02: And and I mean nowadays you see skate parks in all the other cities that are they're full of kids.
31:37
SPEAKER_02: Well, it's just a lot of people.
31:38
SPEAKER_05: It's just uh uh uh the age difference, you know what I mean?
31:41
SPEAKER_05: Yeah, you have the like I mean, I guess when we were growing up in the 80s and 90s, like the skateboarding was like all the rebellious damn kids, you know, and it took an extra 25 years before the city was like, hey, you know what, it's not that bad.
31:54
SPEAKER_05: Let's build a skateboard for these kids.
31:56
SPEAKER_07: Do you feel like like social media and entered the rise of internet and everything being public has uh I guess helped that to move forward?
32:05
SPEAKER_07: Do you know what I'm saying?
32:06
SPEAKER_05: Like yes and no, because you still have that takeover culture that that gives what what Justin and Aaron do like a bad name, because people will still put it all together like oh, they're just doing burnouts in the streets.
32:19
SPEAKER_01: You know what I mean?
32:19
SPEAKER_01: And that's what the city sees.
32:20
SPEAKER_01: We bring up drifting, and the first thing is oh, takeovers like no, that's not what we're doing.
32:25
SPEAKER_01: So my my belief is exposure leads to expansion.
32:28
SPEAKER_01: So I would love to have them come out to an event to sit in one of the cars, just to even be just be a fly on the wall.
32:33
SPEAKER_01: Come watch what we do.
32:34
SPEAKER_01: There's organization, there's rules, there's there's everything lined up.
32:37
SPEAKER_01: It's a safe event, it's a fun event for everyone to go to.
32:40
SPEAKER_01: Come check it out.
32:41
SPEAKER_01: And maybe we'll change their perception to want to work with us to do something in the C District.
32:46
SPEAKER_01: Because that's mainly the goal was to bring it in a centralized area.
32:50
SPEAKER_01: It's not it's not far from everybody, everyone's downtown to begin with.
32:53
SPEAKER_01: It'll pour into the nightlife.
32:54
SPEAKER_01: It's it's a full weekend, but just give us a day.
32:58
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, and that's just that's it.
32:59
SPEAKER_03: That's what I tell everyone.
33:01
SPEAKER_03: Give us a shot.
33:01
SPEAKER_01: Just give us a shot.
33:03
SPEAKER_01: And we can show you, but it's the perception of it is the takeovers.
33:07
SPEAKER_01: That's all it is.
33:08
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, and going through it all and like the same thing with like I said, with skateboarding and skate parks.
33:11
SPEAKER_01: It's the perception of it changed.
33:13
SPEAKER_01: Because back then it was rebellious, it was you know a punk thing to do.
33:17
SPEAKER_01: Now it's oh weird.
33:20
SPEAKER_01: My attorney does it, you know, my dentist goes to skateboard.
33:23
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, it's it's regular people, and they they see us as still like delinquents and juveniles of just being and that brings up like he was saying earlier, the segregation of every different thing to looking and seeing and and who does what and what what gets where.
33:38
SPEAKER_02: Because like I said, you know, we talk about it all the time.
33:41
SPEAKER_02: But people don't know the talent that comes through our events and goes on above.
33:46
SPEAKER_02: You know, we've we've had multiple pro drivers come out and drive our events uh and come through and hang out and you know, have a blast with everybody, bring everybody into town and do stuff, and like Aaron said, it being centralized downtown.
33:59
SPEAKER_02: When we had our events in Beaville, it was it's a hard thing for people locally to make because a lot of people don't got the money, they don't have the funds, they don't have the trailers to do that stuff, yeah, and to to travel here to Beaville's not that far.
34:10
SPEAKER_02: But when you have a program and a car and everything out of the room.
34:14
SPEAKER_02: It does, and it hurts it a little bit.
34:16
SPEAKER_02: It did help locally, but the out-of-town dudes that are diehards, they came down, they did it, and and over there was awesome because we didn't have no sound ordinance, so there was no hey, run run what you bring.
34:27
SPEAKER_02: Like, yeah, it's cool.
34:28
SPEAKER_02: Bring that bring that in my class.
34:30
SPEAKER_02: Yeah, just come out and hang, you know, have fun and stuff.
34:33
SPEAKER_02: But now being down here and having to regulate it and and regulate what we have, it it it makes a hit.
34:39
SPEAKER_02: But if we had the support from the city, it'd be like super cool to come down.
34:44
SPEAKER_01: It's it's hard getting support from the city because they want to put all of us, whether it be us, autocross guys, the car show guys, they put us all into one category.
34:52
SPEAKER_01: And that's where, okay, well, y'all, y'all you're all the same.
34:55
SPEAKER_01: We're all different.
34:56
SPEAKER_01: Right.
34:57
SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
34:57
SPEAKER_01: There's all different rules that we each follow, there's different rules we each implement, different ideas we come up with in our off seasons to bring into the next season.
35:04
SPEAKER_01: So you can ask the guys from Autocross, Car Show guys, there's always something new that they're adding.
35:08
SPEAKER_01: So we all have our our own lanes that we kind of stick to.
35:11
SPEAKER_01: Right.
35:12
SPEAKER_01: But the city sees us like, oh well.
35:14
SPEAKER_07: Oh, so the city puts all of y'all into one.
35:16
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, that's how that's the easy way to see it.
35:18
SPEAKER_07: Oh wow.
35:19
SPEAKER_07: Yeah.
35:20
SPEAKER_07: And then so y'all have that if you have to fight the city, and then obviously you fight other because they're not exposed to it.
35:26
SPEAKER_01: So if there's no ex there's no exposure, you can't expand on it.
35:28
SPEAKER_07: Right on, right on.
35:29
SPEAKER_07: Are there any crews or drivers or young builders you want to shout out?
35:34
SPEAKER_01: Bill, actually.
35:35
SPEAKER_01: Bill's a damn good builder.
35:37
SPEAKER_07: The axle dump, yeah.
35:38
SPEAKER_07: How do you say his last name?
35:40
SPEAKER_07: Dice?
35:40
SPEAKER_07: Dice.
35:41
SPEAKER_07: Bill Dice.
35:42
SPEAKER_07: What's going on on YouTube?
35:43
SPEAKER_02: Yeah, and now uh you know all the drivers.
35:47
SPEAKER_02: The guys from Hero, actually.
35:48
SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
35:48
SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
35:49
SPEAKER_07: I mean, I figure if you if you shout if you shout out.
35:55
SPEAKER_07: I figured if you shout out like the I guess the good ones, you know what I mean?
35:59
SPEAKER_07: People see that.
35:59
SPEAKER_07: Oh, okay.
36:00
SPEAKER_05: You know what I mean?
36:01
SPEAKER_05: Gian from uh JNA, that's a good kid.
36:05
SPEAKER_05: Yeah.
36:05
SPEAKER_05: He's young.

SPEAKER_05: I think he's what 22, something like that.
36:20
SPEAKER_05: He's young.
36:21
SPEAKER_07: So the culture is not just the drivers, it's everything.
36:25
SPEAKER_02: It's like you know, you got Darien, Nick, uh Manny, Manny, Vashawn.
36:31
SPEAKER_02: Vashon street drives his car all the time from San Antonio.
36:35
SPEAKER_02: He puts a little hit on the back, he puts four sets of four tires on the back, and he loads it up and drives over and says, Hey guys, I want to jam.
36:43

39:58
SPEAKER_02: Like, I can't wait for you to get older and do something, you know what I mean, and to see where you go because man, dude, that the passion that some of these people have is like, hell man, if I was 18 years old being able to do that, I would how far we'd be like, I don't know how far we would have been doing it right now, but just the media dudes in general that all help us out big time and and help us expose ourselves.

SPEAKER_07: Uh so and just even talking to you and talking uh and seeing that the Facebook group and stuff like that, and it I like I mentioned earlier, I noticed that there's different sections of the car culture, and so it's like how and I'm trying to figure out why, you know what I mean, and then we we brought up the topic of like it's just the heart of humanity having cliques and this stuff like that, you know what I mean.
42:46
SPEAKER_07: I mean, do y'all it seems like y'all really don't try to dwell on it?
42:51
SPEAKER_07: I can't.
42:52
SPEAKER_01: You just have you you just dwell on your own thing, and that's the best way to keep well because we each understand, even though like I guess you could say we're we're separated in a form, but we each understand I'm not doing what they're doing, and they're not doing what we're doing.
43:05
SPEAKER_08: Right.
43:05
SPEAKER_01: And like I'm safe to say the plan for them to drift isn't in the future, and the plan for us to do what they do isn't in our future.
43:13
SPEAKER_01: So it's is there's no there's no animosity, it's just we respect what we what each other's doing on their own crap.
43:19
SPEAKER_02: Yeah, and there's a there's a huge thing because like Aaron said, you know, there's different motorsports and things that divide a lot of different people and a lot of them's their belief, a lot of them are purists and you know, left and right, you know, don't go straight, straight in the racing, you know.
43:33
SPEAKER_01: It's no crazy.
43:34
SPEAKER_01: You gotta have turns, you gotta have this.
43:35
SPEAKER_07: Yeah, it's interesting that you mentioned we mentioned, I think, when we cut off uh uh that was it motorsports, that you can actually have a career in that.
43:45
SPEAKER_07: Yeah.
43:45
SPEAKER_07: And that's one of the reasons why maybe drifting is considered the skateboarding of I guess motorsports.
43:52
SPEAKER_07: Yeah, yeah.
43:54
SPEAKER_02: Yeah, so you can't you can't make more drifting.
43:57
SPEAKER_02: I'm sorry.
43:57
SPEAKER_02: Do what you gotta do, but you can get rid of it.
44:00
SPEAKER_02: You're not gonna get rich off of drifting.
44:02
SPEAKER_02: Yeah, and like there's the pros and there's the factory back sponsors and stuff, and there's the sponsors that do it, but like Aaron stated earlier, you know, there's there's even even some of the pro drivers, the the factory pro drivers are are venturing off into other stuff because they have to make their money.
44:19
SPEAKER_02: They have to, you know, you this ain't free.
44:21
SPEAKER_02: Drifting, tires, gas, fuel.
44:23
SPEAKER_02: Yeah, you know, there's a there was an old video that came out that everybody's like, uh it was an old drifting video, keep drifting fun.
44:31
SPEAKER_02: It was an hour and a half long, and they traveled, these dudes traveled from the east coast to the west coast and hit everywhere.
44:37
SPEAKER_02: And one of these dudes that they interviewed stated, you know, the people see these perception, and I see it too.
44:44
SPEAKER_02: Like you go to an SECA or or like a uh Formula One or like a sanctioned actual deal that has that, and you see a big trailer pull up, and you're like, Oh, yeah, that guy's making a lot of money doing what he's doing.
44:56
SPEAKER_02: But in drifting, you see a guy pull up with a rig with everything, and he's like, Yeah, the perception is that guy's making a lot of money, but in reality, he's spending a lot of money because tires fuel everything.
45:06
SPEAKER_02: Like, that's why I have two cars because the one car triples the cost to go out.
45:11
SPEAKER_02: Makes that much money to have two cars.
45:13
SPEAKER_07: Well, you gotta be creative in how you're how you're making money back, too.
45:16
SPEAKER_07: That's which is because y'all y'all's in the business, right?
45:19
SPEAKER_02: Yeah, potentially, yeah.
45:20
SPEAKER_02: And like you you have the YouTubers that do their thing, and like, yeah, they're making money.
45:24
SPEAKER_02: Don't get me wrong, like he's making money drifting and stuff like that, but that's not their main deal.
45:28
SPEAKER_02: It's he's making it off of his videos, off his feed, off of selling his other stuff, the content, business, content, shirts, everything else, like whatever.
45:38
SPEAKER_01: It's not even the byproduct, it's it's the dessert at the end of the meal.
45:41
SPEAKER_02: Yeah, so it it takes a lot, man.
45:43
SPEAKER_02: And people don't understand it.
45:45
SPEAKER_02: Like, you gotta work.
45:46
SPEAKER_02: That's what people you come out.
45:48
SPEAKER_02: I'm like, dude, I gotta work.
45:48
SPEAKER_02: We gotta Frank's always working.
45:50
SPEAKER_02: Everybody, it it takes money to go, yeah, build these cars and spend it.
45:54
SPEAKER_02: And that's why I said when I made that horsepower, I was like, hey, ah no, a little bit, that's too much money to spend.
46:00
SPEAKER_02: Oh, right, all right.
46:01
SPEAKER_02: Oh, and now it's easy.
46:02
SPEAKER_01: Now it's something goes boom, it's gonna hurt my wallet.
46:05
SPEAKER_02: Yeah, so that's why I built the car stock and doing stuff like that, because it it takes a lot, man.
46:10
SPEAKER_02: And and you know, like I said, I'm not getting paid to go drive all these other events to do that.
46:17
SPEAKER_02: Like, sponsors give you prices on or or benefits on prices on stuff like that, but you're still paying the full thing, doing the whole thing.
46:24
SPEAKER_02: Like that's what I was saying.
46:25
SPEAKER_07: Like, you gotta love dude, love doing oh, dude, 100%.
46:28
SPEAKER_07: Critical Randall, you're doing great work.
46:30
SPEAKER_07: Keep it up.
46:31
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, drifting's a passion sport for sure.
46:33
SPEAKER_01: It's all about passion.
46:34
SPEAKER_02: Yeah, he hosts the events, he's the uh co-host for the events out of Austin.
46:38
SPEAKER_02: Okay, okay.
46:39
SPEAKER_02: So Dreamers of Drift, shout out, thank you guys.
46:42
SPEAKER_02: You are doing a great job.
46:43
SPEAKER_02: Uh, drifting actually got banned in Austin and they brought it back.
46:46
SPEAKER_02: Wow, yeah, yeah, they banned Drifting in Austin for a while.
46:51
SPEAKER_02: This was back early, like 2010-ish, 11-ish, somewhere like that.
46:55
SPEAKER_02: Yeah, or maybe even earlier, it got banned, and these dudes came back out, and now they're doing car shows, uh competitions, everything else now, and and they're making it work, man.
47:05
SPEAKER_01: But again, the key to that, you know, city supported it.
47:08
SPEAKER_02: Yeah, now you see the city like it like Aaron was saying earlier.
47:12
SPEAKER_01: You got Austin supporting it.
47:14
SPEAKER_07: I don't know, man.
47:15
SPEAKER_07: I it it seems like if there's no money in it, the city won't help.
47:20
SPEAKER_07: I mean, that's that's just how I see it.
47:22
SPEAKER_02: And it's like, dude, I mean I re I I don't want to make a retractment statement that when it talks about the city, because we have a hell of a support from the city drivers and uh event people who attendees and stuff like that in all gen, it's the actual city city of the city.
47:39
SPEAKER_02: It's the official, yeah, yeah, yeah.
47:41
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, it's the ones in position of authority.
47:44
SPEAKER_02: Yeah, because we have great support over here that these dudes show up like, hey, we're doing this real quick.
47:48
SPEAKER_02: All right, we'll be right there.
47:48
SPEAKER_02: Hey, we're gonna clean the track up and cut some grass.
47:51
SPEAKER_02: If anybody has a weed eater, you got to free them out.
47:54
SPEAKER_02: We'll be there, help you out.
47:55
SPEAKER_02: Boom.
47:56
SPEAKER_02: So it's not that, man.
47:58
SPEAKER_02: And and luckily, like me and Aaron, uh, we deal with some managers at our facility that love us and support us and do everything for us that we can, and we likewise help them out when we can, doing what you know, being nice, kicking people out, doing what we have to do to to keep that great deal.
48:17
SPEAKER_02: But that's all in the if we had the city backing us up like those dudes did, man, we oh yeah, we'd have to do that.
48:22
SPEAKER_02: Have y'all tried like have you tried like I mean, have you tried talking to the city or though I did at that one point, man, and and I the just getting the shutdown and like the responses I got, I was like, man, you can't what can I do?
48:35
SPEAKER_02: You know what I mean?
48:36
SPEAKER_02: So that's why it's like you see what they're arguing about now, and everything's going on now, and it's like let me bring that up.
48:42
SPEAKER_02: And and like when we talk to the news and and have some people like some people get interested in stuff, but at the same time, it's like you know, and we've never had a bad experience either with people that come out and and like that don't know about it or the news, and and they always help us out and show a good interest.
48:58
SPEAKER_07: Do you think numbers matter to them?
49:00
SPEAKER_02: Like if you like have like a lot of people go and ask or talk to them that they'll then maybe consider like a petition form, I guess, in a sense, or just that'd be something we'd have to bring to the table, but we'd also need somewhere to do it to do it because like Aaron said, like about how the segregation, like man, I remember one time there was talks about bringing like an F1 style race, or I don't know what sanction it was, but they were gonna do something downtown or something like that.
49:23
SPEAKER_02: And it's like, man, with all drag racing and stuff, like, do you have a hell of a lot of drag racers in this town?
49:30
SPEAKER_02: Like a hell of a lot more than any other thing out there, and like they struggle finding a track and doing everything because man, there's they'll overpower any motorsports here in this town from the roundy round that has their own, you know, uh drag racers pack in.
49:46
SPEAKER_02: Yeah, there's dudes out here and they will stand their ground and do what they need to do for for their what they gotta do.
49:54
SPEAKER_02: But like I said, it's just then that one bad apple comes and that one thing comes and it just ruins it, and it's like there's one thing like, oh yeah, well, what about this?
50:02
SPEAKER_02: Boom, you're done.
50:03
SPEAKER_02: That's it.
50:04
SPEAKER_02: Like, you know what I mean?
50:05
SPEAKER_02: So I we've we've wanted to talk about it, but we also need to sit down and get a plan.
50:10
SPEAKER_02: Uh what we're doing is working right now, and it's not that we're not trying to go above and beyond, but it's like we're low-key right in that window where nobody's messing with us, so it's like, okay, like yeah, we're in the sweet pocket right now.
50:21
SPEAKER_02: We're in the sweet pocket right now.
50:22
SPEAKER_01: We can operate we can operate like freely with within within our own like boundaries, of course.
50:27
SPEAKER_01: We don't really push past that.
50:29
SPEAKER_01: That's cool.
50:29
SPEAKER_07: Like, uh, do you feel has it taken a while to get there?
50:32
SPEAKER_07: Have you been there before?
50:33
SPEAKER_07: No, it took a while to get here.
50:35
SPEAKER_01: Oh, yeah.
50:35
SPEAKER_01: No, it's just it's it's taken us since 2012.
50:37
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, yeah.
50:38
SPEAKER_01: So maybe in the last three years is when it's like, oh, it's it's kind of it's smooth now.
50:43
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, yeah.
50:43
SPEAKER_01: Now we can predict how the event's gonna go.
50:45
SPEAKER_02: Yeah, oh crazy.
50:46
SPEAKER_02: Yeah, and and and seeing that, and like I tell Aaron, you know, when when we did it with Biva, we had to present something like, okay, look, we're gonna bring in these amount of people.
50:54
SPEAKER_02: Look, it was a business plan, all these hotels.
50:56
SPEAKER_07: I was gonna say, what do you so what do you think helped to uh to for it to be smooth like that in the past three years?
51:01
SPEAKER_02: Us busting our butt, man.
51:03
SPEAKER_01: Like like what safety more more safety, yeah, more safety on safety, being on safety and trying to be more professional, uh more regulation, uh more you know, we gotta we gotta be more you know professional, like out out go out forward, you gotta be more professional presenting.
51:18
SPEAKER_01: Uh, because no one wants to come in and no one's gonna listen to anybody if I'm in a cut-up shirt, raggedy shorts, and who are you?
51:24
SPEAKER_02: And I tell Aaron, I'm like, dude, every event, and there's like the private days or whatever, I'm like, bro, I'm gonna come out and cut the grass.
51:31
SPEAKER_02: I hate seeing events.
51:32
SPEAKER_02: Oh, the grass is bad out there, yeah.
51:34
SPEAKER_02: Yeah, so I hate like private days, it's cool.
51:36
SPEAKER_02: Like, I'm not worried about it.
51:37
SPEAKER_02: We do our own landscaping as part of our when I see like the weeds coming up, and I'm like, okay, Aaron, I'm gonna go cut the grass here.
51:43
SPEAKER_02: Y'all want to come and help out, or like whatever.
51:45
SPEAKER_02: But it's just the thing is that being the the littlest things, and if I see a video and there's grass in there, I'm like, uh, why didn't we cut the grass?
51:54
SPEAKER_07: It just shows a little attention to detail.
51:56
SPEAKER_07: I think that's what helps.
51:57
SPEAKER_07: Well, it's taking more pride, yeah.
51:58
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, and doing stuff, and I mean now we have it set up, you know, we we And then we've also done it together long enough, especially with people who are already do help us.
52:06
SPEAKER_01: We've already been a team long enough to understand without even saying a word, he's he's gonna take care of this, he's gonna take care of this.
52:13
SPEAKER_01: We all know what we do through everything already to keep it and we can always if he's out, I can plug right into the position and without missing a beat, nothing against no hiccups, anything.
52:23
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, same thing if I'm missing, he could plug right in.
52:26
SPEAKER_02: And so that's what we know where it comes to that, and and being like that, and telling our shoot Aaron, hey, what if we do these kind of barriers or let's put this or let's put this, and then we see prices and stuff.
52:36
SPEAKER_02: I'm like, okay, let's back it down.
52:37
SPEAKER_02: Yeah, what else looks so like barricading stuff, making sure everything comes right, everyone making sure nobody's crossing, proper signage, proper everything to keep everybody legit and look more of a business professional because you never know.
52:50
SPEAKER_02: I always tell Aaron, man, one day something's gonna pop up and be like, Man, let's build this in my backyard.
52:54
SPEAKER_01: And like, okay, one's gonna come in and say, I want to give you ten million dollars.
53:01
SPEAKER_01: Let's build the dream.
53:03
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, right.
53:04
SPEAKER_01: Not me relying on Aaron's luck, but you know, you know, that's awesome, man.
53:09
SPEAKER_07: It's it seems like business uh when you it's that's cool.
53:12
SPEAKER_07: Yeah, I really like that.
53:13
SPEAKER_07: And I tell Aaron I take pride in it.
53:15
SPEAKER_02: And like I said, I like that sweet spot because it's just enough to where we can like still enjoy doing it, and I don't ever want to hate running events.
53:23
SPEAKER_02: Like I say, that's why we push on everything because I don't want to babysit people.
53:26
SPEAKER_02: It's like, no, I love going out, doing what we gotta do, having a fun time, and everybody just going smooth and nobody, you know, the one thing that is nice now is when cops come to the events, they're not there for us.
53:37
SPEAKER_01: Oh wow, they're there to hang out and catch them.
53:41
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, they're not there to tell us, hey, shut it down.
53:43
SPEAKER_01: There it is.
53:44
SPEAKER_01: What's up, man?
53:44
SPEAKER_01: We're just we're just gonna be parked over here.
53:46
SPEAKER_01: Okay.
53:46
SPEAKER_02: Wow, yeah, yeah.
53:47
SPEAKER_02: And we have we have a cop that sits out there now, and they you know, they watch the building because of all the trespassing stuff and all the the stuff they got going on over there.
53:55
SPEAKER_02: But they come out, he talks with us, we'll hire a security guard and bring them in and do everything else.
54:01
SPEAKER_07: Do you have a market out there?
54:02
SPEAKER_07: Like recently.
54:07
SPEAKER_02: So yeah, they used to have it, uh, and then they just weren't having good luck with uh the things going on with the market, and uh they yeah, they have their own issues and they took off and then it's open again.
54:20
SPEAKER_02: Oh yeah, right there.
54:23
SPEAKER_02: You want to hit it monthly?
54:24
SPEAKER_02: Yes, please.
54:25
SPEAKER_02: Can I do it yearly?
54:26
SPEAKER_02: Is it okay?
54:27
SPEAKER_02: Can I rent it out yearly?
54:28
SPEAKER_02: So and that's why we do the private days and stuff like that, because we you know we we have bills we gotta pay too for the for the events and insurances and everything else.
54:36
SPEAKER_02: So that's why we rent out and people don't understand that.
54:42
SPEAKER_01: Event other event organizers is insurance is not cheap.
54:45
SPEAKER_01: Oh, yeah.
54:45
SPEAKER_02: So you guys got to have a people want to complain, and and I tell Aaron I don't want to raise our prices anymore.
54:50
SPEAKER_02: But if insurance is up, it's like no, like we're the lowest, we are the cheapest drifting event in Texas to attend.
54:58
SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
54:58
SPEAKER_02: Uh sanctioned, you know, and that's that's nobody else's fault.
55:02
SPEAKER_02: That's not a that's not a bragging ride or nothing like that.
55:04
SPEAKER_02: But I want to keep it to where at because this is where it's manageable for us, and we're like, okay, yeah, we can raise it, man.
55:10
SPEAKER_02: If we can raise we could double our own.
55:11
SPEAKER_01: They want to support us, love it.
55:12
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, and I don't know.
55:13
SPEAKER_01: That's why every time we post an event, well, we have two open spots on a private day, it's X amount.
55:17
SPEAKER_01: Here you go.
55:18
SPEAKER_01: Boom.
55:18

55:34

57:12
SPEAKER_02: So like Frank goes to the track, and where I was going with that is at our deal, you sit in line and you wait for everybody to go do their lap.
57:20
SPEAKER_02: At a private day, it's you and five to ten other homies, and you just go on track, boom, and you get it to where you're like, hey, I'm done driving, like I can't drive anymore.

1:11:05
SPEAKER_02: And uh Yeah, I saw that.
1:11:07
SPEAKER_07: You put did a post or something.
1:11:08
SPEAKER_02: Yeah, so we went out to Alabama and uh competed.
1:11:11
SPEAKER_02: Uh me and my boy Ben.
1:11:13
SPEAKER_02: We went up there.
1:11:14
SPEAKER_02: Ben got fourth place, and I got knocked out by Ben.
1:11:17
SPEAKER_02: Spoting.
1:11:19
SPEAKER_02: Well, yeah.
1:11:20
SPEAKER_02: He's got the boats.
1:11:22
SPEAKER_02: And the driving ability.
1:11:24
SPEAKER_02: Third.
1:11:25
SPEAKER_02: Right?
1:11:25
SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
1:11:26
SPEAKER_02: So Ben got third.
1:11:27
SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
1:11:27
SPEAKER_02: Uh his car is like well hella well built, too.
1:11:31
SPEAKER_01: I mean, if he built his to make so much power, he's a tuner.
1:11:34
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, imagine.
1:11:34
SPEAKER_01: So he built his own.
1:11:35
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, his own.
1:11:36
SPEAKER_02: So we kind of they the guys convinced me to get back up and going and and uh do it.
1:11:41
SPEAKER_02: And now that I have a good team backing me and me not doing it all alone, and people I can depend on and help me, uh it's been a huge thing.
1:11:50
SPEAKER_01: And the only reason why we even convinced him is because that's how we when I first came in, that's what we were doing.
1:11:54
SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
1:11:54
SPEAKER_01: It was we're we're going to Houston, we're going here, we're going to Dallas, Mineral Wells, Fort Worth, we're going everywhere.
1:11:58
SPEAKER_01: And it was the same people who are doing it now, doing it then.
1:12:02
SPEAKER_01: It's just, I don't know, I guess nostalgia, I guess, at this point.
1:12:05
SPEAKER_02: Yeah, and I've been wanting to.
1:12:06
SPEAKER_02: I like it.
1:12:06
SPEAKER_02: I like your own.
1:12:08
SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
1:12:09
SPEAKER_02: Yeah, and now financially I can, and bringing the guys in and helping them out and and doing, you know, them helping me out is a huge thing because when like we were talking about, when you're drifting, it's a mental thing.
1:12:21
SPEAKER_02: Drifting, you're not racing the time, you're not racing, you're you're racing your car, but it's more of a me thing.
1:12:26
SPEAKER_02: So if I'm stressing out, uh my driving all day could be crap.
1:12:31
SPEAKER_02: So if I'm if if it's a stressful event for me, then I'm done.
1:12:34
SPEAKER_02: Like I can't well, uh yeah.
1:12:36
SPEAKER_05: I mean, imagine if you were at an event and you had no pit crew, you know, you're changing your own tires, you're changing your own, you know.
1:12:42
SPEAKER_02: So that's how I did it for the for the remaining years when I was competing, and I was just like, I can't do this no more.
1:12:46
SPEAKER_02: Like it it I was getting mad, frustrated, pissed off.
1:12:49
SPEAKER_02: I hated drifting.
1:12:50
SPEAKER_02: I didn't, and I was like, nah, I'm not you're out there by yourself.
1:12:52
SPEAKER_01: You just don't want out there with an extra eye saying, Oh, hey, you shallowed out here and you went too different.
1:12:57
SPEAKER_02: It was just me and my wife hanging out.
1:12:58
SPEAKER_02: My wife was my spotter, and then you know, she would help me with what she could in the pits and do whatever, but I mean it's me doing everything mechanically wise, because I'm you know, I'm not gonna make her do that, but at the end of the day, it's like it's it was a it's a lot on myself to do everything, and then hot, the heat, everything else.
1:13:14
SPEAKER_02: It was like, nah, now that these guys were like, hey, let's do it, we'll all go, we'll help you out, we'll do this.
1:13:18
SPEAKER_02: It's like, well, hell yeah.
1:13:20

1:13:39
SPEAKER_02: Don't forget about that tech they got with the uh the the oh yeah, so they're introducing a lot of new tech uh technology into this into this series and everything to where they put a sensor on your car and now that shows you everything.
1:13:54
SPEAKER_02: Yeah, the wallet system, the guy at Race Data Labs, they're doing that, and now it's it shows you it breaks down your whole run from speed, dec uh your decrease of speed, exactly.
1:14:03
SPEAKER_02: Speed angle, yeah.
