Brian Scotto: HOONIGAN's Future; Carcaine; Dinner w/ McRae; Working w/ Ken  
Podcast: The Smoking Tire
Published On: Tue Apr 25 2023
Description: Brian Scotto is the co-founder of HOONIGAN, a brand that either created or found a new kind of car enthusiast that loved their cars but drove them in a way that some would call abusive. To the Hoonigans it was what was needed to go drifting, rally racing, or to just have fun. Burnouts: evolved. Working alongside business partner and mentor, Ken Block, they created the Gymkhana video series, holding the attention of over 550 million people and brands like Ford, Monster Energy, and Subaru. On this episode we talk about @brianscotto growing collection of Audis and VWs (some of which work); getting in early on the RWB Porsche craze; how a valve cover fix became a whole engine; the slippery slope of Audi love; the wonderful challenge that was working with Ken; and how the dark cloud of a sudden and terrible tragedy caused him and the HOONIGAN family to come together and reflect on the past and plan the future. Recorded April 24, 2023 Go to blackvue.com/TST to learn more about the BlackVue DR770X Box dash cams.
