Gary Castillo is an OG who has been a part of the early import drag racing days in the 90s all the way to today's premier pro drifting series Formula Drift. He started as a mechanic, became a magazine editor then turned into a fabricator. Gary witnessed almost the entire spectrum of import car culture in the USA as he watched both import drag racing and drifting go from their illegal street racing roots to professional series. He was a part of the scene as Hondas tried to break into the 9 second quarter mile, and he was a part of drifting when Daigo Saito competed in the first 1000+ hp car in Formula D. In 1991, Gary Castillo started his journey into import racing by helping his friends work on their cars in San Diego, CA. As import racing was in its infancy in the United States, he shares his memories as Americans were learning how to make their Japanese sport compact cars faster as DIY projects, without the availability of aftermarket support that we see today. Gary was a mechanic on David Shih's infamous Silver Bullet CRX (the first 10 second Honda in the ¼ mile) and then became an editor for Turbo magazine and then Import Tuner. He left his job of being an editor to pursue his passion for building cars and was soon building/working on some of the most legendary pro drift cars, such as the RS-R S2000 (Alex Pfeiffer), RS-R Scion tC (Ken Gushi), RS-R Supra (Manabu Orido), and the Bridges Racing SC430 (Daigo Saito) and SC300 (Robbie Nishida). On top of all that, he is a great guy and an even better storyteller.

This week's episode is part cautionary tale and part inspiring story about truly working hard to make the sailing dream happen and not giving up. I'm sure there are many people out there who are planning to buy a boat that requires just a little work but that's it… and that is what my guest, David Shih thought as well. He planned to be away from his family for maybe 4-6 weeks doing a little bit of repair work on his catamaran's bulkheads before the family could join him. However, 6 weeks turned into 6 months and then almost another 6 months… This is quite the entry into sailing life and David tells how it all went down. Links mentioned in this episode ⬇️
