How Hert Eugene Jr.  became a HOONIGAN

How Hert Eugene Jr. became a HOONIGAN

Hertrech Eugene Jr, better known as Hert, is a staple of the HOONIGAN family and the car world. Hert is as unique as they come and he tells us the WHOLE story of how he came to be one of the premier tire shredders, from his very first car and first accident to his first engine swap, to what he's up to today. Hert has killed a few cars, jobs, and sets of tires.

Known for a no-holds-barred driving style, lack of mechanical sympathy, and aesthetic mods to match, the way he operates is inspiring. We'll talk about how his love of cars began, how he landed at HOONIGAN, and more. @hertlife
