Congratulations firepunk on your success. I wish you continued success in all your endeavors. Never lose sight of where you came from and keep customer service paramount
I will never forget being in 9th through 12th grade in computer class endlessly watching some of the first firepunk videos over and over year after year. It definitely molded me into loving diesel trucks. I loved the last transmission build y’all did for me, and I can’t wait to bring another one!
I remember watching the diesel power challenge videos around 2014 and seeing you guys and just going “Plain city? The quiet town my grandparents live at?” Not knowing you would become one of the biggest names in diesel performance. Awesome to see how far you guys have come!
I've been watching the progression of your successful journey and it has been absolutely amazing, success doesn't come easy with family home and sacrifices that are taken when your focus is on your business. In the end it is completely worth it. Dream chasing becomes reality if you never give up. Very impressive how your team has come together with your leadership. Absolutely 💯 Dedication!!
So impressive to see the beginning of Firepunk, how they give back to the community, having fun and being humble doing it. Just so good to see the American dream alive and well. Congratulations!
Very inspiring, I am 31 and a diesel tech working on semi trucks. Been on the fence for a year or so about opening my own shop. Trying to do it the right way I want to service my community and do good business for people
Glad to hear a little about your humble beginnings and growth over the years which allows you to give back. I know you do, as I support my diesel community as well.
Awesome story 🎉 Giving a smidge back to those that gave us a huge help is the best feeling. Those people never complain either when they have your best interest.
Well done young man.......well done! It's been fun watching the transformation from Lavon's shop to the making of the brand "FirePunk" Also, seeing the change of you becoming a family man, and not being consumed by the horsepower.
FIRST CLASS!! It's been great watching Lovon & Firepunk continue to grow all while never forgetting those who helped along the way!! I look forward to your continued success!!
Looking good Lavon! Cool too see all the history behind the beginning of the most influential business in the cummins performance industry! Excited to see you guys get into Duramax's now. Hoping for nothing but the best for you all in years too come! P.s. can't believe my turd gen made the video lmfao 😂
God bless and keep up the great work. Praying for John's health. Being humble and having gratitude is the core of Biblical principles. I pray your work continues to prosper through 2025.
Lavon that’s awesome story to see where y’all grew from!! I love it! I wish y’all could work on my 5th gen and let me be a full time bill board for yall! If you consider it hit me up 🤞🏼

Congratz on the success! How has hot rodding as a hobby and now as a profession changed your outlook on the hobby? I love to hot rod but am worried a career doing such things would ruin it for me or atleast make me lazy in pursuing my own projects.
I think my age and change of priorities change my outlook more then turning hobby into business. I still enjoy horsepower, racing, and hoodrate activities as much as anyone, but I would rather do it with my kids then stay up til 2am with the guys.
Wow you guys are a bunch of good guys I need to be around people like you guys living in California is ridiculous it's a beautiful state and the weather is good but political crap is BS
Congratulations firepunk on your success. I wish you continued success in all your endeavors. Never lose sight of where you came from and keep customer service paramount

I’m a commercial veal grower and I remember Norman’s veal operation. Sad to see it sit empty.
