Conversations - Ryan Missler

As fans of dirt racing, it's easy to get caught up in the professional racers and the big names we all know. But the majority of dirt racers have normal jobs and race in their free time. One of those racers is Ryan Missler. Missler is a super late model competitor in Ohio, and has had plenty of success, winning races and the Attica track championship five times. In recent years because of his day job and family life, Missler is picking and choosing his schedule, and racing when it works for him. But along the way, he's decided to start documenting his racing journey with YouTube videos. He posted his first video in 2017, and has since added 148 more. Everything from onboard videos at the track, to him fixing damage in his garage, to a recent shop tour at Rocket Chassis. He's amassed nearly 7,000 subscribers and is closing in on three quarters of a million video views. He joins me this week to talk about his racing career, starting the YouTube channel, how it's affected his team, and much more.
