Rutledge Wood isn’t running around inside a racetrack as he has in years past, but he’s still plenty busy. Rut catches us up on what he’s been doing lately; being used where he fits best and telling stories; having to be comfortable engaging people and wondering around; if being on TV has helped him develop a thick skin of other skills; getting his start in racing through a Craigslist ad; being on TV for cars but having a marketing degree; learning to love cars from his dad; why cars were the thing that stuck with me; if his daughters will also have a love of cars; Floor is Lava being the biggest thing he’s ever done; being recognized all over the world; his beard being a whole story; the weird dynamic of having merchandise; everything he can be seen right now and what’s going on.
