Exhaust #77: Deep Perspective Down Under Dec 01, 2019

Show notes

The conversation after this year's Monster Energy AUS-X Open drifted in a different direction. While the post-race press conference is supposed to allow race winners and champions to talk about their night and their season, nearly every rider on the stage—Chad Reed, Jason Anderson, Justin Brayton, Chris Blose, Dan Reardon, and Josh Hill—mentioned the perspective and enjoyment they've gained as they continued racing at an older age. For Reed, Brayton, and Blose, that includes defying the odds of conventional competitiveness; for Hill and Reardon, it included comebacks from retirement. Even Anderson, only 26, feels he's gained much maturity in the last year. There's only one exception to this concept: the 16-year-old Jett Lawrence, who added some hilarity to the conversation and also explained his background with Reed.

Jason Weigandt hosts the event, and you'll enjoy the perspective of some of the wise men of this business.

The Moto Marketing Podcast #3: Renthal's Paul Perebijnos Nov 25, 2019

Show notes

Paul Perebijnos is a name you may know from his work with PulpMX, or perhaps because of his time as Dean Wilson's mechanic during Dean's outdoor title run, but you may not know he's also one of the moto industry's most respected brand managers. Paul joins Luke Nesler to discuss his recent move from Pro Taper to Renthal as their United States brand manager, and what he has in store to reenergize the iconic brand.

Exhaust #76: Joey Savatgy Nov 21, 2019

Show notes

Jason Weigandt sat down with new JGR/Yoshimura Suzuki rider Joey Savatgy in the pits at the Monster Energy S-X Open in Auckland, New Zealand, to discuss his long journey toward getting a ride for 2020. After a solid rookie season with Monster Energy Kawasaki, Savatgy was left looking for work once Kawasaki promoted Adam Cianciarulo to Savatgy's old spot as a 450 factory rider. Savatgy would appear to have an easy home with JGR and Suzuki, but as that team sputtered finding funding, Joey was left to wait, wait, and wait some more. What was that process like? Did he ever consider the privateer route—or quitting altogether? Is he bitter about being in this situation in the first place? Savatgy gets honest in this edition of the Racer X Exhaust Podcast.

Show notes

Brett Smith, also know as BJ Smith, joins Luke Nesler on the Moto Marketing Podcast to talk about how he created the popular brand We Went Fast. What started as a passion to tell cool stories from the past is now one of the most talked-about brands among old-school moto heads. What you may not know is the story about how We Went Fast came to be. In a prime example of not overthinking the situation and just getting started, Brett created his media company from nothing more than an Instagram account and never looked back.

This time out, Mirtl explains his wild pathway from Australian freestyle motocross mechanic to accidental agent to today's role as a growing power broker in the racing world.
