My main question or concern with the whole “YouTube job” situation is in the case of something serious happening to the tech age or social networking era, what’s some of you tubers going to do in the event of it all becoming unnecessary or abruptly obsolete what do you do when there’s not such a need or want for the “content creator”.
Two leaders talking car stuff love em both
I only have 1 question…. did Billy run yet? Lol
These pods have been amazing.
I just wanna say around 50:30ish, i know y'all dont have that much time to put into such a thing but there are so many GREAT independent artists out there who would LOVE to become a regular part of your vids. You pick your music genre its out there and better than ever. We the people rarely hear the current good stuff just because of the record industry and copyright stuff
Keep doin interviews just like this. Great job
Billys editing is way better sorry Tommy love ya but the early videos are fire
I love SRC’s teasers! I get emotional thinking about how much drag racing means to me when I watch them.
What you guys are saying about promoting racing different is dead on, look at the success gunner had with the gangster chain.
Excellent interview, bless you guys!
Thanks for the video/podcast!! Great content!!
Me and my husband started to follow billy and src about 4 years ago around we have watched other u tubers drag racing but when we saw src we were hooked!! His content is awesome we wait till src video comes out of the races. I feel that billy is a real talented tuner and racer and tommy is talented as well. We just can’t watch one it’s src old man’s garage and gen 2 garage love it all
Oh and the fact that me and my husband met billy in Orlando florida at the race track he’s a super nice guy!!!
Can’t wait to see how the src channel goes at in the future I’m sure it will continue to grow as it has now can’t wait to see the new shop all done
How bout bill next
To say SRC past my favorite Cletus .. is huge. Love the content and the family aspect of SRC.
I would love to see you get more involved with the mechanic shop. Actually, I’d like to see you buy it.
Thank you ten solder
billy this was great loved hearing your story
I used to be a huge hater on Billy and SRC then actually started watching every video. Haven't missed one in years and one of their biggest fans now! Billy come back to Joplin!!
Take a shot every time Billy says I just wanna race
Billy you son are #1 for many years to come. Ten soldiers racing ❤..very well respected and loved..Also #1 for the future of racing. Being #1 isn't that you are the best of it. But you are the Best person..❤ God is bringing you challenges and you share in conversations how we all add up to be our #1 self. Keep praying for peace and love.
I live in northeast Pennsylvania and there ain't shit here, I built a car for no prep and there's nothing here, I have a trailer to travel but my job prevents me from participating because I'm on call 24/7 besides vacation time, your lucky to be in an area where there is 7 tracks having events
When shop is done Billy Tommy Mom pop alison all under one Roof again Hats off to all of them enjoyed wat hing there contenr drom the start and how they grown
JT at 1:05:05 says "in the bible…"
then gives reference to Matthew, Mark, Luke and John all telling the same story but from different perspectives.
Now THAT was a classy touch!
Warms my heart to hear drag racers talk about the bible!
I think the Old Mans Garage channel really compliments the SRC channel too. If Billy is too busy to film or something, OMG kinda picks up where SRC left off. Its also really helped Bill Sr kinda live out his dreams as well and spend a lot of time with family. All thanks to Billy and SRC.
How long before we see SMX engines in no prep racing? I think its gonna happen.
Go back watch and watch 1st 4 season of street outlaws u see Cali nate Ryan Mitchell av boys n everyone was on nitrous murda nova had zoomies on his pro charger before his turbo
Best race WAR IN WOODS N THE GUT
First strip I went to was Hobbs, NM.
Ever see a 56 Chevy with chain driven super charger? I did in 1962.
Was a car nut years before that.
The mechanical part was what got me.
Still love the mechanical part even tho I am 82.
I talked with JT at Bowling Green 5 years ago and started following Billy about the same time. I met Brad on Midwest Drags It’s great to see all of your successes as the years roll on. Keep killing it.
Family Tradition
Hat's off. Loved this.
Awesome podcast. Really was a great watch.
I live in Michigan and been following SRC for years and HE DID GET NO PREP GOING UP HERE to.
Very good and informative video I really appreciate the insight of a good YouTube channel I think you both have the things on point hope to be out there soon with you doing racing and so on I'm a big street racer out of Chicago making the change cuz there's no good racing here anymore hope to see you this is Bernard from Starperformance LLC
Awesome! Much respect for tin soldiers, and SRC
Just wanted to thank both of you. You guys are both great examples of solid hard working young men. Thank you for telling your story and being a strong example for others.
No other channel I've watched on Youtube makes me feel like part of the family than the SRC family , the behind the scenes stuff , family time , goofing off with Jimmy Dean & Tony & Tess … you guys are just special .
Great video !
