John Mulligan, aka Johnny Utah, uh, freaking rad, savage dude.

I mean, look at him.

And he's old, too.

I'm old.

I can say he's old because we're the same age.

Bro, so, so, uh, you're living in Iowa now.

That's right.

But you're not from Iowa.

No, no.

Tell me, grew up in Kentucky?

Yeah, grew up in central Kentucky Lexington okay

um dad was a plumber home to plumbing business and and you know I love Kentucky it's beautiful

thoroughbreds rolling you know bluegrass but I really thought that's what I was going to do take

over my dad's plumbing business and go to the dirt tracks

on the weekends and that was it and that was cool, you know?

When do you start dirt tracking?

Um, so when I was real little, my dad owned a team

and would always go and play in the pit area to have my hot wheels, make my own dirt track.

You know what I mean?

And it was super cool.

And then kind of like Days of Thunderstyle, he took me to a go-kart track.

And one of his buddies was like, yeah, you know, you ought to get your son into it.
