On this episode I chatted with Farmtruck & Azn from the TV show Street Outlaws. It's been aa decade since the first season aired on the discovery channel. We talk about street racing scene in OKC before the show and after the show. How they both met cruising Route 66 in Bethany and how they've built their brand and audience into their own show on discovery called the Farmtruck & Azn show.
FARMTRUCK
Farmtruck and AZN are the dynamic duo from Street Outlaws who race a ’70 Chevy Long Bed Truck. Featuring rusty paint, a camper shell, dents and a “ZZZZZ” license plate, this race-equipped truck is the ultimate sleeper. Farmtruck first got interested in trucks from riding in his father’s 1956 Ford pickup when he was 12. He would stand between the fastest cars on Route 66 with a flashlight above his head to start the races. Sean had a series of trucks that he messed with but never had a winner till he answered an ad that read, “Very fast truck for sale” in an Auto Trader Magazine. The Farmtruck is a 1970 C-10 Chevy Pickup Truck and it is deceptively fast! Farmtruck and AZN enjoy list races, but are more interested in “fishing.” Fishing means luring unsuspecting marks into racing for money by complementing their cars and downplaying the Farmtruck’s power. AZN does the smack talking and Farmtruck does the driving. These two are goof balls, who street race for the adrenaline rush and satisfaction they get from catching others by surprise. Suzy Lu is their newest and cutest addition to the team and loyal follows them around in all their adventures.
AZN
AZN is Farmtruck’s best friend for over a decade, AZN has been the one to handle the smack talk while Farmtruck wins the races. AZN always has Farmtruck's back but recently he’s been looking to get behind the wheel of his own ride. After a failed attempt at racing lawn mowers it looks like AZN may have found a new sleeper to call his own. “The Dung Beetle,” a Volkswagen Beetle that looks like ‘Dung’ on the outside, but underneath the hood is a 400HP Turbo-charged CB Performance engine. Together with the Farmtruck, The Dung Beetle is gonna feast on unsuspecting racers as well as the other drivers on “The List.”
