04:55.046 --> 04:57.088
[SPEAKER_01]: You get pushed into the leadership when you're an oldest brother.

04:57.884 --> 05:07.690
[SPEAKER_00]: I said, I grow and probably go again here when I was 18, fresh out of high school and I'm being here since then.

05:08.930 --> 05:13.393
[SPEAKER_01]: You had originally said that Volkswagen's were always around, right?

05:13.493 --> 05:17.495
[SPEAKER_01]: So what did that actually look like for you on a day to day basis?

05:27.355 --> 05:39.541
[SPEAKER_00]: have run both so I can sing rallies since I was a kid and my uncle always owns both so I can see it's crazy with the MK's on the cab real.

05:40.421 --> 05:53.287
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, the rabbit, all that, my dad has had a 70 when I was growing up that I remember, I should remember just a picture

05:57.560 --> 06:08.145
[SPEAKER_00]: And then we're going to remember why not my sister first card was a horse again, but yeah, in Puerto Rico, there's wolf sounds everywhere.

06:08.905 --> 06:16.809
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, that's what I've heard and I know that to be true, don't they use Volkswagen says taxi cabs and that type of stuff as well.

[SPEAKER_00]: they used to, they used to back, back, back in the day.

06:22.295 --> 06:30.040
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, our uncle has won, I remember the nons of the shirt had a Volkswagen out of stick.

06:32.401 --> 06:34.422
[SPEAKER_00]: And they traveled from church to church in it.

06:35.563 --> 06:43.127
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, there was always a sunrail at home or there was something.

06:43.187 --> 06:45.949
[SPEAKER_00]: And if we see a horse, I think we would punch each other.

06:47.192 --> 06:47.713
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm in.

06:47.933 --> 06:49.053
[SPEAKER_01]: A bunch of buggy health care.

06:49.454 --> 07:01.442
[SPEAKER_01]: Let's go back to, I guess, maybe how old you were your first thoughts about being around the VW culture, how old were you, what were your first memories of being around the culture?

07:06.910 --> 07:09.292
[SPEAKER_00]: It was my dad with the sand grills.

07:09.492 --> 07:19.500
[SPEAKER_00]: I was kind of the, we used to go from county to county with my uncle to raise the sand rills.

07:20.261 --> 07:24.184
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, it did like rally style racing, right?

07:24.224 --> 07:24.844
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, exactly.

07:25.165 --> 07:34.232
[SPEAKER_00]: And we used to run to the street to the, to the mud from the house, back roads all the way to the mall so we can not find.

07:35.153 --> 07:42.536
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, it was, it was really nice times, that's, that's my early, remember, we'll say in a round.

07:43.276 --> 07:43.717
[SPEAKER_00]: That was.

07:44.377 --> 07:52.400
[SPEAKER_01]: You would said one of your memories, too, was that your sister got a Volkswagen, was that that purple beetle that you talked about in your, yeah.

07:53.040 --> 07:57.882
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, tell me why you think that that stuck with you, why that memory stick with you in your life.

07:58.743 --> 08:02.304
[SPEAKER_00]: So my sister wanted a bud, right?

08:03.466 --> 08:07.067
[SPEAKER_00]: found for her birthday when she's got his hair license.

08:08.048 --> 08:13.450
[SPEAKER_00]: So my dad found our 70s, also I get purple.

08:13.850 --> 08:21.133
[SPEAKER_00]: I remember it had purple with the cloth and he brought it home and it was a boy who was doing what everybody was saying.

08:22.133 --> 08:28.055
[SPEAKER_00]: And then one day he told me, we're going to change the cloth from the car and I was like

08:33.658 --> 08:50.289
[SPEAKER_00]: And a cement pad, all right, he said he told me to look that how easy this is, and I was, I was, okay, I close for me was, and saying job, yeah, and I was still a kid, sure.

08:51.790 --> 09:03.077
[SPEAKER_00]: So, he dropped the motor in like 20 minutes or less, all right, and he asked me to pick up the car with him.

09:04.414 --> 09:06.736
[SPEAKER_00]: All right, he dropped the motor to the floor.

09:06.876 --> 09:10.779
[SPEAKER_00]: We pick up the car, we put it to the side and the motor was already out.

09:11.400 --> 09:15.904
[SPEAKER_00]: And I was like, hopefully, like, I was like, so surprised.

09:15.944 --> 09:18.126
[SPEAKER_00]: I was like, he said, I don't have the clutch.

09:18.146 --> 09:19.147

[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, that's one of the first things you mentioned.

10:07.694 --> 10:14.077
[SPEAKER_01]: Do you think growing up in a family like that with your dad kind of, you know, given you those types of examples?

10:14.697 --> 10:21.300
[SPEAKER_01]: Did you actually absorb a lot of what you learned about the mechanical side or did, were you taught?

10:22.081 --> 10:25.262
[SPEAKER_01]: Were you, did they teach you about the mechanical side?

10:25.322 --> 10:26.943
[SPEAKER_01]: Did you absorb it or were you taught it?

10:28.151 --> 10:33.494
[SPEAKER_00]: No, I mean, I'm about to solve it, because I've already asked him for it, being around it, right?

10:34.515 --> 10:34.975
[SPEAKER_00]: Exactly.

10:35.015 --> 10:39.218
[SPEAKER_00]: Not only that, I mean, in my house, there was something up.

[SPEAKER_00]: So I was always right behind him, and said, like, let's see what he's gonna do or he will call me to hoping out, you know?

11:09.967 --> 11:12.768
[SPEAKER_00]: So yeah, that's it with me.

11:13.606 --> 11:24.889
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, that's why I can't because you said originally that you got into more of the like the street racing side of things first.

[SPEAKER_00]: and he started taking pictures of all the activities, of also arguing that's how he started, and he did his first midnight in our body, yeah Puerto Rico.

16:41.052 --> 16:47.254
[SPEAKER_00]: It was a success, so he told me, which I don't know if you know this,

16:48.099 --> 17:00.631
[SPEAKER_00]: There's a bunch of people from Puerto de Trabdo, almost every show in Florida, and he told me, I said, there's a lot of good shows in Florida.

17:00.691 --> 17:01.752
[SPEAKER_00]: Can you look into that?

17:01.912 --> 17:07.177

17:14.637 --> 17:24.621
[SPEAKER_00]: We went to Bogdan, he took pictures, all the cars, there's a lot of pictures back in the page, back in the day in Bogdan, four or five years, four or five years ago.

17:25.021 --> 17:26.921
[SPEAKER_00]: And from now on, I will look.

17:28.102 --> 17:34.844
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, seeing the cars, the people, the Latino community in the most right games, I mean,

17:35.737 --> 17:43.721
[SPEAKER_00]: the people know him from the page, but the hand that they would say him in person, he didn't know who the people was.

17:44.602 --> 17:48.604
[SPEAKER_00]: And the people calling me one, thinking that I was him.

17:50.045 --> 17:54.107

18:00.128 --> 18:12.152
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, I was really surprised because we don't got that in the racing aspect, you know, it's more like quiet, don't look, don't look at this, don't look at my car or the end, you know, whatever.

18:15.826 --> 18:18.248
[SPEAKER_00]: So he came, it was just a success for him.

18:18.268 --> 18:24.312
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, people start tagging other people's because of the big shares that he took.

18:24.953 --> 18:27.155
[SPEAKER_00]: And I started looking for a little saying.

18:27.515 --> 18:31.699
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, saying his success because he was into racing too.

18:32.519 --> 18:33.920
[SPEAKER_00]: More dangerous than I was.

18:34.321 --> 18:37.403
[SPEAKER_00]: And I was like, and I had a motorcycle at the time.

18:39.005 --> 18:42.748

[SPEAKER_00]: And then one of his friends told me, I know boss is a fancy, but what about a ban again?

18:57.170 --> 18:58.451
[SPEAKER_00]: So I started looking to a ban

19:10.895 --> 19:14.856
[SPEAKER_00]: till I saw the motorcycle and all of that to find it.

19:17.017 --> 19:19.897
[SPEAKER_00]: My band again was under a tree for nine years.

19:20.498 --> 19:24.099
[SPEAKER_00]: So about a fairly cheap and it is on work.

19:24.619 --> 19:29.620
[SPEAKER_00]: From that day, I realized how cool the motorcycle and community is.

19:30.320 --> 19:31.361
[SPEAKER_01]: You were getting some help.

19:31.681 --> 19:36.722
[SPEAKER_01]: I think from some strangers in this, uh, in this build, right?

[SPEAKER_00]: And he started calling people.

20:00.818 --> 20:02.820
[SPEAKER_00]: And people started showing up on my house

20:07.761 --> 20:08.221
[SPEAKER_01]: That's it.

20:08.241 --> 20:09.262
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, that's the community.

20:09.963 --> 20:12.645
[SPEAKER_01]: And I was like, oh my god, I'd like.

20:13.966 --> 20:17.549
[SPEAKER_00]: And in my brother, he knows I'm more like serious type.

20:17.649 --> 20:18.950
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't bring nobody home.

20:19.070 --> 20:22.913

20:39.242 --> 20:48.525
[SPEAKER_00]: So we couldn't figure it out and we went to Belgium and all that and then I had this guy that I used to work in front of his shop.

20:49.597 --> 20:54.938
[SPEAKER_00]: His name is Pedro, all the Volkswagen Latino community know that he works only both eyes.

20:56.218 --> 20:59.559
[SPEAKER_00]: And he's really special person for me.

21:00.259 --> 21:01.900
[SPEAKER_00]: And I call him.

[SPEAKER_00]: He has, he has like five or six most seconds his own.

21:08.861 --> 21:11.201
[SPEAKER_00]: And I asked him, hey, I got this problem.

21:11.642 --> 21:13.542
[SPEAKER_00]: He said, I'll be there tomorrow.

21:13.742 --> 21:14.782
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm going to fix it for you.

21:16.422 --> 21:18.703
[SPEAKER_00]: Next day, he came in with a carburetor.

21:19.834 --> 21:25.815
[SPEAKER_00]: He read the full edition of and that van start right up.

21:27.295 --> 21:35.437
[SPEAKER_00]: He put a 32 36 in it and I have never had problems again with that with that van.

21:36.277 --> 21:38.257
[SPEAKER_01]: So you had an issue with fuel injection.

21:38.277 --> 21:39.137
[SPEAKER_01]: That was your problem.

21:39.737 --> 21:45.258
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I spend a lot of money buying computers and and full edition parts for it.

21:46.039 --> 21:48.219
[SPEAKER_00]: And wow, he carbrated it.

21:48.980 --> 21:53.003
[SPEAKER_00]: He calculated it and it's been working awesome since then.

21:54.064 --> 22:04.553
[SPEAKER_00]: I have a couple of issues here and there, you know, also again, guy, you're always going to have, but not problems are all the story retirement.

22:06.395 --> 22:12.240
[SPEAKER_00]: That was that was my first actually Volkswagen experience that I like to talk to myself.

22:12.740 --> 22:13.341
[SPEAKER_00]: I can do this.

22:14.222 --> 22:14.502
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay.

22:15.491 --> 22:19.675
[SPEAKER_01]: And you, you know, you touched on the community a couple of times showing up for you.

22:20.175 --> 22:26.061
[SPEAKER_01]: Why do you, what do you think makes VW people different than other car cultures?

22:26.862 --> 22:32.867
[SPEAKER_00]: I, I believe to myself is a passion that that you have.

22:33.148 --> 22:36.191
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, also in people are different.

22:36.431 --> 22:39.614
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm going to agree with you, but I'd like to have your take on this.

22:39.694 --> 22:40.274
[SPEAKER_01]: Do you think

22:41.133 --> 22:45.514
[SPEAKER_01]: It's the cars, or do you think it's the type of people that the cars attract?

22:46.615 --> 22:47.475
[SPEAKER_01]: I think it's both.

22:47.995 --> 22:48.295
[SPEAKER_00]: OK.

22:49.136 --> 22:51.296
[SPEAKER_00]: I believe it's both.

22:51.636 --> 22:53.177
[SPEAKER_00]: This is my son's crazy.

22:53.497 --> 22:55.218
[SPEAKER_00]: And my family, we believe.

22:56.818 --> 22:58.599
[SPEAKER_00]: Volts are again cast feelings.

23:01.680 --> 23:02.220
[SPEAKER_00]: I love it.

23:04.022 --> 23:11.808
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, if you don't think and all they can say, they can matter to you, and you're going to be stranded if you don't use it.

23:12.469 --> 23:13.910
[SPEAKER_01]: You're a, you're not wrong.

23:14.410 --> 23:14.630
[SPEAKER_01]: Right.

23:14.670 --> 23:16.432
[SPEAKER_01]: That's what they always say in the culture, right?

23:16.452 --> 23:17.773
[SPEAKER_01]: They're designed to be driven.

23:18.293 --> 23:20.775
[SPEAKER_01]: And if you don't drive them, then they're going to failure.

23:20.815 --> 23:21.696
[SPEAKER_01]: They're going to break down.

23:21.736 --> 23:24.218
[SPEAKER_01]: And, you know, so yeah, I respect that stance.

23:24.778 --> 23:27.360
[SPEAKER_01]: You said something powerful in your, in your back story, though.

23:28.101 --> 23:30.162
[SPEAKER_01]: You said we think we're, we're building the car,

23:34.148 --> 23:45.036
[SPEAKER_00]: So, all it came when I bought the 62, about I almost two years ago, as a human being, you always have ups and downs, like everybody.

23:45.056 --> 23:53.602
[SPEAKER_00]: I started looking for a book, I found the 62, and it had no factors, no doors, no interior, but it did run.

23:55.003 --> 23:58.065
[SPEAKER_00]: So, remember what I decided to buy it, and we bought a home,

23:58.837 --> 24:07.225
[SPEAKER_00]: And we started working on it and I had new floors in new floors.

24:07.845 --> 24:09.907
[SPEAKER_00]: I had new on door pose.

24:10.728 --> 24:13.150
[SPEAKER_00]: So we started working on it and put it back together.

24:13.610 --> 24:16.853
[SPEAKER_00]: I had the past and my ground father passed away.

24:17.273 --> 24:19.756
[SPEAKER_00]: That Christmas about the current October.

24:20.757 --> 24:21.157
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, man.

24:22.723 --> 24:28.768
[SPEAKER_00]: And I remember calling my dad to talk to him that I bought that sister to and he was in the hospital.

24:30.369 --> 24:34.353
[SPEAKER_00]: And my grandfather opened the eyes like really big.

24:35.654 --> 24:45.102
[SPEAKER_00]: And he couldn't talk, but my dad taught him like, I'll save all that sister to, and he was like, I don't care, he wouldn't tell him.

24:46.022 --> 24:48.244
[SPEAKER_00]: We would tell him about interior color.

24:53.041 --> 24:55.322
[SPEAKER_00]: and he they like that.

24:56.622 --> 25:01.784
[SPEAKER_00]: And I said, black, he was hearing me because I was on a speaker phone and he did.

25:03.385 --> 25:09.807
[SPEAKER_00]: So between life and and he passed in a way and nobody knows about this.

25:10.547 --> 25:17.830
[SPEAKER_00]: Darkard has all my time and and all my time since that is being focused on that card.

25:19.047 --> 25:28.532
[SPEAKER_00]: It's not the period, it's not pretty, it's not car show quality, but the sentimental body that car has for me is something else.

25:30.093 --> 25:30.874
[SPEAKER_01]: It's awesome, man.

25:31.454 --> 25:31.934
[SPEAKER_01]: What's that?

25:32.275 --> 25:33.275
[SPEAKER_01]: What's that car's name?

25:34.756 --> 25:36.177
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

25:37.658 --> 25:38.118
[SPEAKER_01]: I like it.

25:39.309 --> 25:43.192
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, yeah, it's one of the most beautiful beaches in Puerto Rico.

25:43.813 --> 25:44.533
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, okay.

25:44.613 --> 25:45.254
[SPEAKER_01]: Cool, man.

25:45.454 --> 25:45.914
[SPEAKER_01]: I like it.

25:46.034 --> 25:46.214
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

25:46.755 --> 25:48.756
[SPEAKER_01]: I love how these cars get their names, you know?

25:49.477 --> 25:49.737
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

25:50.318 --> 25:53.040
[SPEAKER_01]: Now, let's touch on factor for a second, you know.

25:53.420 --> 25:57.924
[SPEAKER_01]: So tell me how the VW show started for your brother.

25:58.764 --> 26:00.185
[SPEAKER_00]: So he started doing pictures.

26:00.846 --> 26:01.146
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay.

26:01.907 --> 26:03.108
[SPEAKER_00]: He started going to shows

26:09.705 --> 26:14.906
[SPEAKER_00]: other club or people's shows and having fun.

26:15.066 --> 26:24.388
[SPEAKER_00]: He's always, he's always like the camera and the pictures with the people and the car and all that.

26:24.648 --> 26:26.428
[SPEAKER_00]: He did that for midnight in

26:35.920 --> 26:40.841
[SPEAKER_00]: with different people, different car clubs, you can call.

26:40.861 --> 26:48.162
[SPEAKER_00]: And he called me one day and he said, I'm going to do a show in Bogotong.

26:48.962 --> 26:54.563
[SPEAKER_00]: It's going to call Bogotong most, so I can weaken by factor most writing.

26:55.803 --> 26:56.243
[SPEAKER_00]: Perfect.

26:57.544 --> 27:00.864
[SPEAKER_00]: And I was like, you're nuts, but I'm going to be there.

27:07.239 --> 27:10.463
[SPEAKER_00]: Uh, which is, um, book at home.

27:11.605 --> 27:15.390

[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I mean, he pulled that off.

27:20.998 --> 27:23.461
[SPEAKER_00]: He was the first to camp in it since 89.

27:25.352 --> 27:25.892
[SPEAKER_01]: Awesome.

[SPEAKER_00]: I didn't did it.

27:28.574 --> 27:29.155
[SPEAKER_00]: That was.

27:29.315 --> 27:30.116
[SPEAKER_00]: That's insane.

27:30.576 --> 27:30.956
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

27:31.096 --> 27:31.617
[SPEAKER_01]: I like that.

27:31.757 --> 27:35.820
[SPEAKER_01]: I got a couple of success stories from some events around here that we were able to bring back.

27:36.300 --> 27:41.684
[SPEAKER_01]: And the only reason that they were able to come back was because people in the higher ups in the city.

27:41.804 --> 27:44.826
[SPEAKER_01]: They said, Oh, we remember you Volkswagen people.

27:44.866 --> 27:47.448

30:28.635 --> 30:31.636
[SPEAKER_01]: I saw something else in your story that you had mentioned.

30:31.656 --> 30:37.039
[SPEAKER_01]: I thought it was, it looked like a pretty awesome milestone for you guys, but you partnered up with Bug Jam at one point, right?

30:54.967 --> 30:56.988
[SPEAKER_00]: And we are forever grateful for the opportunity.

30:58.696 --> 31:03.321
[SPEAKER_00]: he wanted to do a midnight with the bot jam, which we did.

31:04.843 --> 31:09.067
[SPEAKER_00]: He gave us the opportunity to do before write it.

31:09.928 --> 31:10.208
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay.

31:11.850 --> 31:13.131

31:41.620 --> 31:49.882
[SPEAKER_00]: And then, that's saying, we can, on Sunday, we have the privilege to put the first Latin banal stage.

31:50.322 --> 31:52.582
[SPEAKER_00]: We ran the end.

31:52.602 --> 32:00.464
[SPEAKER_00]: Other people from different pages in Puerto Rico jump into, and that was an amazing brother.

32:01.404 --> 32:04.805
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, this still people talking about it.

32:05.815 --> 32:14.459
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, I had Randy on not long ago, and we recapped Bug Jam last year and talked about some of the changes that are coming up for this year.

32:15.160 --> 32:19.222
[SPEAKER_01]: And one of the things that he really talked about that he wants to bring back is a Latin band.

32:20.417 --> 32:22.998
[SPEAKER_01]: Um, so I think that's, you know, that's, that's pretty awesome.

32:23.078 --> 32:26.999
[SPEAKER_01]: Something else he's bringing back this year, because it did a little better than we all thought.

32:27.039 --> 32:32.661
[SPEAKER_01]: But I don't know if you saw this when you were there in November, but my podcast was there.

32:32.961 --> 32:35.642
[SPEAKER_01]: And the podcast sponsored the stereo contest.

32:36.784 --> 32:44.029
[SPEAKER_01]: So, you know, the first day, there wasn't that much energy around the stereo contest.

32:44.449 --> 32:51.194
[SPEAKER_01]: The second day, we had like 26, 27 cars that had entered the stereo contest.

32:51.754 --> 32:52.775
[SPEAKER_01]: And dude, it was awesome.

32:53.355 --> 33:00.398
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, some of these cars, some of the guys did not enter that should have because their stereos were just absolutely crazy.

33:01.819 --> 33:07.981
[SPEAKER_01]: Some of them were the Puerto Rican community that had come and traveled.

33:08.162 --> 33:09.002
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, oh, yeah.

33:09.383 --> 33:10.965
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, man, rocking.

[SPEAKER_01]: We had a really, really good time.

33:12.987 --> 33:24.919
[SPEAKER_01]: So Randy was just saying just when he was all not long ago that we're going to be doing the stereo contest again and he was talking about bringing, you know, bringing a Latin band back and and all that good stuff.

33:24.959 --> 33:25.159
[SPEAKER_01]: So.

33:25.840 --> 33:26.700
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, man, it's cool.

33:27.440 --> 33:30.221
[SPEAKER_01]: He really, you know, he gave me that opportunity as well.

33:31.222 --> 33:32.022
[SPEAKER_01]: Randy does a lot.

33:32.062 --> 33:44.705
[SPEAKER_01]: He catches a lot of heat from the, from the Volkswagen community because, you know, he's not a a rider-dive Volkswagen guy, but man, he's just like all of us.

33:44.765 --> 33:50.167
[SPEAKER_01]: He's very community-driven and he does a lot behind the scenes for Volkswagen culture.

33:50.927 --> 34:05.897
[SPEAKER_01]: uh... whether people know man is a very good man very good man uh... like a city gave me that opportunity to do the stereo contest and you know he's he's got a couple other cool things he's thinking about doing this year um... he wants to do like uh...

34:06.907 --> 34:07.707
[SPEAKER_01]: What do he call it?

34:07.727 --> 34:13.951
[SPEAKER_01]: He called it like, Pimp your campsite or something like that where I saw the interview.

34:14.171 --> 34:15.852
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, yeah, that was not this.

34:15.872 --> 34:22.936
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, yeah, they're going to have a contest of how dope your campsite can be, how mapped out you can make your campsite.

34:23.396 --> 34:32.601
[SPEAKER_01]: And he's talking about donating like a smoker or like, you know, some high ticket, badass item for the winner, which I mean,

34:34.463 --> 34:36.724
[SPEAKER_01]: how cool, you know, how cool is that?

34:37.064 --> 34:42.286
[SPEAKER_01]: And then other small changes, you know, you want to bring the stage indoor that way.

34:42.306 --> 34:45.186
[SPEAKER_01]: It can't be affected by the weather or the rain or anything like that.

34:45.246 --> 34:49.868
[SPEAKER_01]: And I got that new barn, you know, so indoor.

34:50.608 --> 34:52.809
[SPEAKER_01]: But anyhow, yeah, Randy's awesome man.

34:53.149 --> 34:54.229

[SPEAKER_01]: I'm glad you brought him up.

35:48.274 --> 35:50.475

[SPEAKER_00]: But I didn't realize it when the car showed up to my house.

[SPEAKER_01]: Okay.

44:53.480 --> 44:58.022
[SPEAKER_00]: It's the white sister seven with three big wheels.

44:58.342 --> 45:02.765
[SPEAKER_00]: It was one of the pieces that helped us out.

45:03.986 --> 45:13.891
[SPEAKER_00]: And I mean, seeing my wife, something down, all blue, I met in 2009,

[SPEAKER_00]: I went to, let me see, after that, I went to a clean water.

45:57.981 --> 46:04.344
[SPEAKER_00]: I think it's the same thing that you were talking about earlier, um, and I found the

46:17.125 --> 46:22.907
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, quick quick quick quicker it that is it's considered clear water there.

46:23.867 --> 46:24.207
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

46:25.228 --> 46:34.951
[SPEAKER_00]: I remember the name of the show, but I remember I got the bumpers from there and to the time that we first rode it.

46:35.871 --> 46:39.472
[SPEAKER_01]: Do you come down for the other shows the pier the skyway?

46:40.693 --> 46:44.634
[SPEAKER_00]: I do most of the times I don't bring a car.

46:45.752 --> 46:47.713
[SPEAKER_00]: OK, I just enjoyed that weekend.

46:48.754 --> 46:53.356
[SPEAKER_00]: I went to with some friends from Puerto Rico with Papito and his wife.

46:54.196 --> 46:59.119
[SPEAKER_00]: I went to the one is from you guys.

47:01.120 --> 47:01.820
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, here.

47:03.461 --> 47:06.162
[SPEAKER_00]: No, it was like in an excellent.

47:06.782 --> 47:10.985
[SPEAKER_00]: You need to be there really early, so you can pass the Volkswagen

47:13.617 --> 47:15.897
[SPEAKER_00]: all the way to the back and there's water around it.

47:16.598 --> 47:19.978
[SPEAKER_00]: And all the most science are there in December.

47:21.759 --> 47:25.739
[SPEAKER_01]: The scam, the PM ride, the nighttime ride, well, all the Christmas lights.

47:26.540 --> 47:32.981
[SPEAKER_00]: No, it was doing the day, but it's well, I'll let's show.

47:33.961 --> 47:34.241
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay.

47:34.961 --> 47:41.243
[SPEAKER_00]: I remember I registered and the Van Gogh was broke and I couldn't make it.

47:44.457 --> 47:53.181
[SPEAKER_01]: up the St. Pete Pier downtown where you have the parade in the morning and you all line up and then you can only got one shot where you got to go out and park on spot beach.

47:53.842 --> 47:54.122
[SPEAKER_01]: Yes.

47:54.142 --> 47:54.422
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay.

47:54.802 --> 47:55.263
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

47:55.283 --> 47:55.663
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

47:55.763 --> 47:56.463
[SPEAKER_01]: That's a good shot.

47:57.284 --> 47:57.544
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

47:57.564 --> 48:01.346
[SPEAKER_00]: So I remember I register for it and not going to bother.

48:02.557 --> 48:08.619
[SPEAKER_00]: The man again, but I did went because I have people coming from Puerto Rico that was going there.

48:08.939 --> 48:09.259
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

48:09.719 --> 48:22.443
[SPEAKER_01]: A couple guys, just this last one in January, a couple guys were pissed because they showed up and the fire marshal after that convoy goes on the pier that the fire marshal shuts it down.

48:22.503 --> 48:27.184
[SPEAKER_01]: You can't get on or off until the show wraps up in the afternoon.

48:27.584 --> 48:28.385
[SPEAKER_01]: I think it like three

48:29.907 --> 48:31.510
[SPEAKER_01]: So you're stuck out there.

48:31.590 --> 48:35.176
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, the downside to that is there's also no cars allowed to come on.

48:35.897 --> 48:43.129
[SPEAKER_01]: So there were a couple guys from Puerto Rico that had showed up late and they they paid and everything and they couldn't get on.

48:44.087 --> 48:59.362
[SPEAKER_01]: And they were like, no, you know, where's Allen, you know, and they want to talk to us and, you know, year before, uh, which was May 2025 before we had that January date, one of those guys from Puerto Rico, he won best engine.

49:00.063 --> 49:05.186
[SPEAKER_01]: So he won on the ward from the show, he was one of the ones that couldn't get on.

49:06.227 --> 49:08.488
[SPEAKER_01]: His car's bad asked too, man.

49:08.848 --> 49:17.234
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, shoot out all those cars, 250 cars, you know, he had best best engine, so, but he couldn't get back on.

49:17.314 --> 49:19.395
[SPEAKER_01]: And that's that spot is beautiful.

49:19.835 --> 49:21.376
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, yeah, water on all sides.

49:22.737 --> 49:26.159
[SPEAKER_00]: And there's so many things to do around to.

49:26.619 --> 49:29.021
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, yeah, I mean, it's here in the heart of the city.

49:30.770 --> 49:48.197
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, there's different kinds of words and that I don't take my ball seconds and I go to the shows and I stay close and I just pass like a couple of days, you know, to relax and and some pieces, this one of the places.

49:48.657 --> 49:49.138
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, man.

49:49.278 --> 49:49.878
[SPEAKER_01]: I love it here.

49:50.098 --> 49:50.958
[SPEAKER_01]: Born and raised here.

49:51.399 --> 49:52.159
[SPEAKER_01]: I do love it here.

49:52.559 --> 49:57.221
[SPEAKER_01]: I have one other city that I've lived in in my life that I love equally.

49:57.641 --> 50:06.691
[SPEAKER_01]: And that's Colorado Springs, Colorado, Colorado has a banging Volkswagen community and it's just one of my favorite places, man.

50:06.732 --> 50:07.593
[SPEAKER_01]: I love the mountains.

50:09.497 --> 50:10.657
[SPEAKER_01]: I just love the mountains.

50:10.697 --> 50:11.398
[SPEAKER_01]: I love the beach.

50:11.418 --> 50:12.058
[SPEAKER_01]: So I'll give me your own.

50:12.098 --> 50:13.098
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm born and raised here.

50:13.778 --> 50:27.623
[SPEAKER_01]: But something about that crisp, cool dry air in the mountains out in Colorado, man, just something about the seasons and haven't snow and, man, it just really just peaks my interest, man, I love it.

50:27.683 --> 50:30.183
[SPEAKER_01]: But enough of me back to you back to you.

50:30.463 --> 50:32.244

[SPEAKER_01]: Volkswagen's as a whole.

50:35.545 --> 50:37.146
[SPEAKER_01]: What is it talking about life?

50:40.296 --> 50:43.138
[SPEAKER_00]: to be patient with how them to be prepared.

50:43.359 --> 50:44.660
[SPEAKER_00]: That's not the one.

50:45.781 --> 50:59.972
[SPEAKER_00]: And and these most of our hands has changed so much how our students and the people have helped me to like us on a really good friends.

51:00.953 --> 51:04.216
