Tj Hunt

Tj Hunt established himself as a notable figure in the automotive community, developing a substantial online presence through his YouTube channel. Beginning over a decade ago with amateur videos about paintball guns, he later shifted his focus to cars. His automotive content started in high school around the age of 16, where he documented his journey of learning to modify his BMW E90 328i. This early content resonated with viewers due to his open and honest approach to learning and occasional mistakes.

Over the years, Hunt’s YouTube channel grew significantly, accumulating over 2.2 million subscribers and nearly three-quarters of a billion views. This growth enabled him to expand his ventures beyond content creation. He co-founded Street Hunter Designs, a company specializing in aero car parts, and launched an apparel brand, Hunt & Company. His work often involves custom car builds, focusing on a blend of aesthetics and performance, including notable projects with JDM and exotic cars. He emphasizes functional aero and usable power in his builds, balancing “form of function” with race car appeal and street-car aesthetics.

Hunt’s career includes numerous collaborations and partnerships within the automotive industry. He has worked with companies like Nitto Tire, for whom he serves as a sponsored driver, utilizing their tires in his race programs. His influence extends to managing multiple businesses and employees, handling complex timelines for video schedules, and integrating corporate and racing commitments. Despite the demands of his various roles, he continues to prioritize his passion for car culture and engaging with his audience, often sharing insights into his personal car collection and future build plans.
