We start off this episode of @WestOfTulsa with a question. Do you know what a #rotary is? If not, you'll know everything about it by the end of this show. And if you do, you'll learn a bunch of new stuff anyway. Our guest is Berny Herrera one of the pioneers of #SevenStock , the largest rotary car event in the U.S. maybe even the world. Gabe and Berny believe it's the greatest show on the planet. Do you agree? And Berny's stories take us behind the scenes of SevenStock, how it all began and what to expect at this year's huge event. Thank you for supporting West of Tulsa and please like, follow and subscribe if you haven't already.
