Very talented young man. I’m not a fan of the spaghetti hoses tho. Probably not easy to work on either.

That's impressive! I wonder how many top custom builders or race teams have offered him a job so far?

Thanks for the video. I saw that car at SEMA in 2018. I couldn’t figure out the snake pit headers. People were gathering around that car trying to make sense of it. Wild machine.

He’s since redesigned the headers for more power and it won the Hot Wheels car of the year contest. Pretty humble & nice kid. Hoonigan and Donut media have clips on it on YouTube.
