Think im going to try rhis youtube deal out. Not sure how much time suck its going to be but im already in the shop damn near every weekend, wreching or fabbing.

The ol tracker has been blowing up on ig so fish helped me with the first video. Just a walk around video of the rig and action shots. Im surprised at how hard it was for me to just talk to the damn camera. After a couple me, it wasnt bad but still, i have ticks in noticed and had to slow my speaking or I’d get tongue tied.

Driving it was far more fun lol.

Channel wont be just about the tracker. Limo will be on it and other projects of mine and friends. Be nice to grow that and push DD more on there too.

That’s cool James! I got to work with Mr. Beast last week, he told me he cleared 85 million after taxes last year. We are in the process of setting up a unique tournament fishing channel.

The show we filmed is coming out soon I’ll post a link. It was another 5 million dollar challenge…

There is definitely money to be had! So far, hes the first to move from youtube to something else like amazon prime with a show and do well

He even has hamburger joints out west somewhere. He gave us a bunch of his new peanut butter bars that are about to launch at target. He has spread himself out and is killing it.

One thing you had to get used to when I was teaching a few classes, was how it would wear you out. Talking for hours is no joke. Don't be afraid to pause and think, it's not like you need to be constantly flapping your jaw to keep an audience engaged

And....

Just playing! Also Fish did a great job with the filming and a camera shots of the rig. (y)
I think you did well for a first video. Subscriber #32 here.
Can't wait to see the limo.

For those of us that don't know, Does T&B stand for something like Tuna & Beer or maybe last names?

I dont normally do this, but I sub'd your vid. Interesting how smoothly that suspension works over uneven ground. Doesnt look like you have a lot of body roll or yawing at speed.

Agreed. I talk alot as it is, specially if its something im explaining to someone. I have to do this alot at work lol. Between customers and employees, quiet time is non existent. Ideally ill have some talking, filming normal speed on short projects and on things that take a while, ill timelaps with some splits about where im st as i go.

Titties and Beer . Heard rodney carringtons song back in high school and decided my “race team” would be titties and beer racing. I was racing my dirt bike and we were racing BITD in our race rhino (hence 1925, that was our race number) Made stickers and hats freshman year of college. Got heavy into fab work and started building stuff for friends and people on the side. So changed the name to T&B Racing/Fabrication. Few years later, just changed it to T&B Fab. Seemed simpler and more acceptable to the masses lol.

If i could have got the rear link geometry how i wanted, it would have been even flatter in corners without a sway bar (i dont run one) but im limited to the constraints of the stock frame and body. On the street, shes floppy lol
