So he bought a small printing company, that didn't work out.
So he opened a small garage called gas monkey, that was doing OK because the guy he partnered up with was really good. Until he got fed up and quit.
One of his wealthy friends made a bet he and Richard couldn't break the record for the cannonball run. They did, but some people dispute that. That's his 15 minutes.
His shop occasionally sponsors DBs like Alex Laff-lin.
If Richard is the ultimate douche (and he is), Alex is running a close second. When he gets beat (often) he throws a temper tantrum and runs overhis opponent's chutes in the shut-off lane.
Royal douche.
Rawlings tried sponsoring a top fuel dragster but
AFAIK it never qualified for a race.
