From the NHRA Race Track to the Detail Bay: Brian’s Road to Vision One

Описание: The first RoadFS Detail Memoirs Podcast episode of 2026 kicks off with a bang! 🎉

Hosts Rod and Jody sit down with Brian from Vision One Detail, a lifelong Texan whose career evolved from NHRA racing to running a state-of-the-art detailing and training facility in Tomball, Texas.

Brian shares how polishing race cars between NHRA rounds sparked his detailing journey, the lessons learned from years in the pits, and the incredible story of how racing legend Roger Brogdon helped him open his new shop. From mistakes that became million-dollar lessons to mentorship from icons like Mike Phillips and the Angelwax family, this episode is packed with heart, humility, and hard-earned wisdom.

If you’ve ever dreamed of opening your own shop, building community over competition, or learning from failure without losing your passion — this is the episode to watch.
