While in Orland, we got to sit down with Neo from Neo Garage. Neo Garage is a performance parts shop which offers brands such as Rywire, Downstar, Skunk 2, K-Tuned but it's a little more than a parts supplier. Come take a listen to how Neo got started and what it took him to get where he is today. Thank you so much for listening and please if you find value in the podcast, tell a friend!

On this rainy California day, our good friend Big Mike made the 3+ hour trek to the Downtime With Downstar studio for his second appearance on the podcast. If you missed the first time, it was actually episode 1 and 2. Big Mike and I have been friends for many years and we always have great conversations together. Here is a glimpse in the stuff that we talk about. Enjoy!
