So the year was 2016, and I’m sitting in High-School with not much of a plan of what I would be doing once I graduated even though I would be graduating the next year. Whilst experimenting with elective classes I found myself in a design class learning how to make stickers, And after making some, I brought them home to show my family. That’s when my Dad asked “Could you make some for the I&E work trucks?” (The company he works for)
After a few attempts with the schools cutter, I got them done and even got the approval to start making all the future I&E stickers! I now had a pretty big problem though… Once the teacher got wind that I was making these for money, he was obligated to tell me that what I was doing would be against school policy, and I couldn’t keep doing it. With the check I got from the first one, and the small savings I had I bought my first cutter, and pretty much never went back to that class. Ever since then I have been making stickers for not only I&E, but ANYONE who asks!
I forgot a major part of my High-School experience, so let me back up a bit. I’ve always loved cars, and in 2016 I had bought a few cars, one being a Nissan S14 240SX! This was my dream car since I had gotten into drifting a few years prior, but this took a lot of convincing, because I was 17 and My mom didn’t want me to be “ A Speed Racer”. So once I got the car, not to long after owning it I decided to prove to my mom that she was wrong by going drifting in a industrial lot with way to many of my friends. Needless to say when the cops got there, it wasn’t looking great. I was one of the people that got a ticket for “Speed Racing”
When going back to work the next day at Piology to ask for more hours to pay for this ticket, my manager Jack ruthlessly, and sarcastically called me “SpeedRacinJason” My passion for cars was continuing to grow, and I had been wanting to start a Youtube channel, so after consulting all my friends, and the time was right I started it.
“SpeedRacinJason”
Now it’s 2020…
And I am turning all of these projects I started a lifetime ago into a career. I’ve been waiting to create my website until I knew I could do it, and do it the right way, so even though its been almost 4 years were finally here!
I have perfected not only my sticker craft, but also all the merchandise I make for SpeedRacinJason. Up until now you had to DM to get your hands on this, but I would like to make it available to anyone! And take it from a side gig, to the full thing, So check out the “Merch” page, and for sticker needs, go to the “Stuck You Stickers” page!
