Motion Raceworks Backstory & Tour With Doug Cook

On my way from Dean Loucks shop in Elkhart Indiana to the Ice Cream Cruise in Omaha I stopped in Dewitt Iowa to see Doug at Motion Raceworks. I had never been there before and didn't even tell Doug I was coming so it was pretty awesome we got to film a video. The backstory of how he started Motion is really inspiring. They also filmed a video with my Newell on their channel so check that out too ‪@MotionRaceworksOfficial‬

I said it before and I’ll say it again; I don’t know you, will probably never meet you, but seeing someone as young as you are just say f**k it let it ride is inspiring. Thanks for sharing.

[@Stapleton42]

Thanks dude it means a lot. I have no plan B. This is it. However long that takes to make it work.

[@joshwynn457]

That's so awesome! Good to know the people you do business with are as down to earth as you are! Thanks for sharing!

[@drivewaybuiltfoxbodies5327]

Lord man how do you not have more followers? After seeing the motion race works video. You should have a longer video with their reactions etc. Either way it's great to follow all that you are doing and looking forward to seeing what you and your latest business is going. I have to say from the first time if seeing the escalade to now you deciding not to go back home. It's a great thing and for those with the opportunity to do so. Get out there and chase the future you desire. No reward without taking chances.

[@Stapleton42]

Thanks man. It’s hard to get a channel off the ground in today’s social media climate. That’s the hardest part and I’m not quite there yet. It’s just part of the process and I’ll be here grinding it out no matter what an algorithm says. I’m glad you’re here 🤟🏻

[@drivewaybuiltfoxbodies5327]

@@Stapleton42 I understand that completely. Just keep in mind all the resources you have met along the way that can be beneficial to your social media goals. They are a great group and would bet my last breath they would be helpful in guidance. But your ride and skills will speak for themselves. Either way you are living a lot of younger individual's dream by taking the leaps. Just know you have a lot of support behind you and look forward to what the future holds for you.

[@TrashPandaGarageOfficial]

Best quote ever "You can waste 5 yrs pretty easily." - Doug Bro, I felt that!

[@Stapleton42]

Doug is a smart guy

[@TrashPandaGarageOfficial]

@@Stapleton42 that he is, I've followed him for many years.

[@95flareside1]

Today I learned Motion Raceworks is only an hour from me. I dont know what to do with that information, but its good to know lol

[@sidharmonson8110]

Dude omg same like iowa fr?

[@adammichaeld]

Same here I live in moline

[@rickscott6239]

Nice of you to show us around, Doug seems to be a real down to earth guy just like yourself and many others that I've had the pleasure of meeting through the social media platforms. Some day I'd like to meet many of y'all in person before it's too late for me, because at the young age of 71 you never know what tomorrow brings, if anything at all. But in reality, regardless of age, you're never promised a tomorrow. Keep on bringing the vids and we'll (I) will keep watching, stay safe brother. Peace.

[@Stapleton42]

Thanks man 💪🏻

[@Shadow0fd3ath24]

I like the band aid box that says "Bitch Stickers" when he was telling the starting out story lol. Thats a HUGE building too, like im amazed!

[@Mac-td7lt]

Good for you dude. Wish you the best.

[@adamwinters4448]

Motion raceworks is probably my favorite company to do buisness with. These guys always deliver

[@tygbenn]

[@Stapleton42]

[@johnmckinney1493]

Love the dogs. Miss my two boxer mixes

[@mitchellbarnow1709]

I’ve got no doubt about it, Mitchell, just please try to remember us way back in the beginning of time!

[@redubskie]

I wasn’t here from the beginning but I started at the beginning and I’m catching my way up

[@Stapleton42]

I appreciate you brother

[@wideslammer]

It's a small world. I'm a subscriber on Cleetus' channel and have been seeing Doug (I never heard his last name used) a few times on Cleet's channel. He seems like a nice fellow with a very nice Nova. On Cleet's channel, he mentioned that he would be racing one of his customers. Being curious to know more about what he sells , I Googled Motion Raceworks since he wears their t-shirts. When I saw the Dewitt, Iowa location and their website, I thought Doug must only be a customer of their products. (Since he's been on Cleet's channel a few times, I assumed he lived somewhere in the southeastern part of the U.S.) Looking further, I saw a link to this video and now know more about Doug's business. Looking at your channel to see what kind of content you produce, I realized that I had seen (via video) you racing your Cadillac at Rocky Mountain Race Week. Now I'll have to explore your channel further and see what else you provide for YT viewers. Good luck growing your channel with interesting content like you produced at Motion Raceworks.

[@Stapleton42]

Thanks man

[@StonkeyDomp]

What a great company with an amazing group of guys! #WeldUpWally #LincolnLocker #youknowthedeal #MFHoodrich #BigOleFatty

[@BmoreFox]

Best guys around

[@Stapleton42]

Absolutely

[@codyhailes8733]

Just seem like genuinely good dudes, killer service and great products are just a plus!!

[@shanetomlinson561]

It's El Toro!

[@jjjustin17favs]

Looks like it has the same two lifts I used when I worked for community care. Hard to believe that place used to be a special needs facility.

[@RonnieT123]

I don't know who came up with it but I love the fact that you guys are all crossbreeding getting more viewers from each other! It definitely works..

[@randykudijaroff482]

Drag Week? Cool Shit? I'm in. Honestly, you we're so comfortable with the camera that I had to check (twice) to be sure who's channel I was on for a second lol. One second I'm making a bracket listening to Doug ramble about some shit, next I'm hearing you talking to doug like it's your channel and I'm like hhhhhrm huh? I dig it tho, can't wait to see what you do.

[@Stapleton42]

thanks dude I appreciate it!
