Hey there! I put together a video for William Byron a while back, and it sparked an idea—what if the next Top Gun movie traded fighter jets for stock cars? Imagine a kid mastering a racing simulator, lap after lap, until one day he’s standing on the podium, NASCAR championship in hand, from virtual tracks to absolute glory. That story sticks with you, and here’s the kicker—I was there when William’s journey was revving up.
Let me take you behind the scenes to see how Speedwyze teamed up with William Byron to help steer him toward the NASCAR Cup Series.
It started with a call from Jamie Hylton. “I’ve got this kid,” he said. That kid was William—young, driven, and brimming with potential. At Speedwyze, we knew he had something special, so we set out to capture it. We crafted a video that wasn’t just about speed or checkered flags—it was about his grit, his passion, and the road ahead. The result? It is a story that hit the gas and didn’t let up.
That video caught eyes—fans felt the rush, sponsors took notice, and teams saw a future star. With the proper spotlight, William’s talent took off. Today, he’s carving his name into the NASCAR Cup Series, and we’re proud to have played a small part in that climb.
So, why am I telling you this? Because motorsports isn’t just about racing—it’s about connection. If you’re a brand manager or someone who loves a good tale, there’s something electric here worth tapping into. At Speedwyze, we live for moments like these—helping brands tell stories that resonate, whether it’s through a video that hooks your audience or a campaign that drives results. There is no pressure, just a possibility.
Thanks for listening! I’d love to hear your thoughts or brainstorm the next big idea over a virtual coffee.
