Ever wondered what it’s like to be in the thick of a high-stakes street race with the cops hot on your trail? Join us as we recount a pulse-pounding experience where not even law enforcement could halt the adrenaline-fueled action. We take a nostalgic trip down memory lane, reflecting on the days of evading the flashing lights and sirens, and contrasting them with today’s slightly slower pace. You’ll also hear about the magnetic influence of the "Fast and Furious" franchise, especially how the legendary NYC street racer Rafael Aceves inspired the first film and left a lasting legacy within the Dominican community and beyond.
We also dive into the heart of the racing scene, spotlighting influential figures like Rafael Estevez and the DRT racing team, and remembering the late Robert Maps. Get the scoop on major events such as the World Cup Finals at Maryland International Raceway and Honda Day, and what it’s like to cover these electrifying gatherings as media. Our guest shares his humble journey from a behind-the-scenes enthusiast to a recognized voice in the racing community, emphasizing the importance of giving back and representing the everyday racer. This episode is a celebration of the diverse and inclusive world of street racing, filled with stories that will leave you motivated and appreciative of this vibrant community.
