Mikey Brown Talks Redemption on NC Shop Talk!

October 2, 2024 By Nadeem

The Hog Ring - Mikey Brown Talks Redemption on NC Shop Talk!

Tune in to the latest episode of NC Shop Talk to hear Mikey Brown of Paper to Pavement catch us up on his bid to build a real-life Hot Wheels car.

NC Shop Talk is the industry’s first podcast. It’s hosted by Mal Maher of NC Carpet Binding & Equipment.

On the podcast, Mikey talks about his experience attending WyoTech, the genesis of his “Paper to Pavement” movement, how he turns trash into automotive art and his latest run to win the Hot Wheels Legends Tour.

Mikey Brown’s Redemption Vehicle & Hot Wheels Legend

What does it take to come back from defeat and strive for redemption? Mikey Brown, a true embodiment of resilience, shares his inspiring journey on a second attempt to win the prestigious Hot Wheels Legends Tour. Last year, Mikey came incredibly close to victory, capturing the attention of Jay Leno and inspiring countless others with his innovative “Paper to Pavement” builds. But falling short only fueled his determination to return stronger than ever. Fresh off winning the Houston Regional Event, Mikey joins NC Shop Talk to discuss his experience from last year’s heartbreaking finals loss and how it’s fueled his 2024 “Run at Redemption” in pursuit of Hot Wheels immortalization.
