      Why would you go a meet RUclipsrs and influences? To review cars that I'm sure they have all over their channels... find regular car people to interview. Go to shows, cars and coffe etc, find people that actually built their own cars not bought or paid for the build. Why would you just regurgitate other people content onto your channel. I'm so tired of seeing the same cars on 25 different channels...

    A Lady Pamela story on Good Friday. I'm glad she's able to tell Brocks stories and I imagine that for every one that she tells us there are three she can't tell us.
    That screen shot of Brock doing commentary for NASCAR on Speedvision really took me back.

      Exactly, seems a little convenient putting his murder down to a secret affair and an Arabian price, given his long running involvement with mobsters and drug runners.

      Not true, the boats used by Don Johnson were supplied by a RE developer named Tom Gentry. Mr. Gentry and Don Johnson were close friends. Tom Gentry's boats were legendary the Eagle was the most powerful, advanced and expensive boat of the 80's, Mr. Gentry paid nearly $7 million to have it built in the mid 80's.

    Don Aronow on the other hand lived during a time and in a place. Building boats that served many different people many different purposes. That were not always for good. If you were around during that period, it's not hard to guess wich side of the marina the shot originated.
