Soundless Speed: When Legends Talk About Dreamers
In the world of racing, it’s rare for legends to pause and spotlight someone else’s story. But in Soundless Speed, that’s exactly what happens.
Randy Pobst—one of the most decorated and respected drivers in the game—sits down at Sonoma Raceway to talk about someone he can’t stop thinking about: Lonnie, aka The Deaf Stig. This bonus feature, filmed and edited by Hazen Woodson of Boundary Visual Media, flips the script. One of the greatest racers alive is being interviewed… and all he wants to talk about is his deaf friend who blew him away.
Lonnie isn’t just a racer. He’s a father, a badass homie, a dreamer—and the backbone of Deaf Power Racing, a team that communicates through instinct, hand signals, and pure connection. People ask him if it’s even legal for someone who can’t hear to drive. He doesn’t argue. He just straps in, shifts gears, and leaves them in the dust.
Randy talks about how Lonnie first reached out to him, how their friendship grew, and how deeply impressed he is with the team’s chemistry, hustle, and relentless drive to overcome every obstacle. It’s more than just admiration—it’s respect. The kind that only comes when a true champion sees greatness in someone else.
This moment captured in Soundless Speed is bigger than racing. It’s about what happens when someone refuses to be limited by the world’s expectations. Lonnie isn’t out to prove people wrong—he’s here to live his dream. Loudly. Boldly. Without needing to say a word.
If you ever needed proof that dreams don’t need volume, Lonnie’s your answer. And if you needed a reminder that greatness recognizes greatness, just watch Randy Pobst tell the world about his hero behind the wheel.
This is what real respect looks like. This is what chasing dreams sounds like—even in silence.
