Around Quote by Latto
“You had to be, I want to say 12 or 13 to drag race, but I was drag racing probably like at 8, and then it was overlapping. I was starting to rap, but I was still drag racing around 9 or 10, until I finally was like, 'You know, I don't want to do this no more. I just want to rap.'”

![“I'm strapped in [the barrel] with a five-point drag-racing harness. With 50 feet to go, they tell me on the walkie-talkie to get ready for a head-first. "We love ya, man," was the last thing I heard. Then I could feel myself going over.” quote by Steve Trotter](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/2f1/steve-trotter-44980_barrels_i-m-strapped-in-the-barrel-with-a-five-p_1737157.jpg)
