Publisher's Summary
The breakout star of Discovery's hit automotive restoration show Fast N' Loud takes listeners on an entertaining ride through his wild life and behind the scenes of his hit show in this memoir and automotive handbook, revving with outrageous details and jaw-dropping stories and injected with the quick-witted, foul-mouthed charm viewers love.
"If we're gonna have fun, it better have a motor!"
In Fast N' Loud, Richard Rawlings pushes into high gear, sharing the story of his rise to success, his show, and the automotive know-how that has made him famous. He begins with his own story - how he went from flat broke to a seat at the table with some of history's most iconic car guys. His road to the top is full of dangerous twists and hilarious turns, with a few precipitous cliffs in between, including getting shot defending his beloved 1965 Mustang fastback from carjackers, blowing out of town Fear-and-Loathing style, and picking up chicks and vagrants along the way.
Rawlings then takes listeners behind the scenes of Fast N' Loud the series, sharing details on everything from the toughest car to restore to the easiest, his favorite restorations, travel and war anecdotes, and the best and worst cars to make it to the small screen. He finishes with a handy guide for classic and antique car enthusiasts that includes insider tricks of the trade. Want to know how to find a Model-T in mint condition? Need a carburetor for your '73 Ford Mustang? Want to meet other '60s Porsche owners? The answers are all here.

Absolutely loved Fast N’ Loud: Blood, Sweat, and Beers
As a long time fan of Fast N’ Loud and Gas Monkey Garage, I thoroughly enjoyed this book. I’d recommend this book to any Fast N’ Loud fans that are curious about Richard’s start and ascension through the hot rod communities and television. I like how he also gives background information on the show and the people that work for his business. He gives some real advice and inspires other enthusiasts to get out there and try their hand in flipping cars. I can’t wait to get back to Dallas, TX to visit Gas Monkey Garage/Bar & Grill.

Surprisingly informative and educational
I was surprised at how in depth Richard Rawlings went into his background and upbringing in this book as well as his business education and tactics. Honestly wasn’t expecting much, but I’m now walking away from this book with bigger respect for what Richard has done with his brand and his business sense.

decent listen! entertaining and exciting!
really enjoyed the story. I've seen Richard on Fast and Loud, and Garage Rehab. it's nice to hear his story of where he came from. he pays a bit of homage to his crew at Gas Monkey.
the performance was good. some aspects were a bit rough in tone. but still pretty solid listen.

short but entraining
if you like to show it's worth a listen to. it's interesting to begin with but it feels like a hard sell towards the middle.

Lists of Interesting suprises
I listened to it in one session. I couldn't turn it off. I loved Fast n Loud show before this book and now, after listening to it, I appreciate it even more. Those that talk smack about Richard need to listen to this book and give him deserved credit for his talents, intelligence and hard work. He has earned his success.
