Great synopsis.  Thanks for sharing!  Donut Media does some good stuff.
"Low she sits on five spoke wheels
Small block eight so live she feels
There she's parked beside the curb
Engine revving to disturb
She's the princess from his past
Red paint gold stripes damned she's fast"

That is his shtick. Most of his videos are pretty funny.

I appreciate it in that it is a 30 y/o extolling the accomplishments of Ken Miles 53 years after his passing. Most kids his age either aren't interested in anything automotive or worse, want everything automotive eliminated.

I lasted through about 8 seconds of the video, couldn't stand the character narrating.
