And that just stuck with me, honestly, through everything.
Because I would get told, in the same situation, even guys that I looked up to,
which I won't mention, but would say I'd meet them.
My moment of meeting one of my heroes, I said, I want to be a Formula One driver.
And he told me that it's, oh, dude, you can't do that these days.
And they were a Formula One driver?
They weren't a Formula One driver.
But they were a pro?
They were a pro driver, yeah.
Pro driver.
And I was 13 years old going into my first racing season of...
of cars, you know, out of go-karts.
I just won a $20,000 scholarship to race this Formula V car and New Zealand Formula First car.
And yeah, but I remember just not even caring a little bit.
You know, he told me that and I was just like, oh, okay.
Didn't faze me at all.
Like it didn't change anything.
It wasn't like he told me that and I was like, oh, that sucks.
I just didn't care.
And so for some reason, and I feel lucky that that stuck with me, that stuck with me all the way that like, just not ever really doubting that it would happen somehow.
