Burgers and talking biznass, I love Brian, such a good dude…
Brians background reads like this: A NY’er, punk/metal listening, Audi/European car loving, 0-60 Magazine launching, Gymkhana making, Segway riding, Hoonigan pushing and that’s just the very short version….

I’ve known Brian for some time, he has a storied passionate automotive background that includes his “baby” 0-60 Magazine among just being a solid “car guy” but also he’s in the “Get it” crew…
