    Thats a lot of time, effort and of course, money. Also Jeremiah didn't do so bad, the first race DNF (if the car didn't broke off he'd finish in 6th, but thats motorsport, where anything happens (and Edit here because I forgot is that Jeremiah didn't notice that because sim games doesn't simulate that thing), his second was 5th and in qualify was 4th, for being new at everything isn't that bad

    I never drove a car and I am generally speaking against even the very concept of personal vehicle ownership for transportation. But I'm a big fan of passionate people and Jer is my fav Donut presenter because he's funny, humble and smart. I was really happy for him

    Every now and then, Donut just released an absolute masterpiece of a video. Most of which can tend to make you cry. This was one of them. This is probably Donuts best video in a long time, maybe even ever. I feel like a collab between Donut and Gears & Gasoline would do very well

    You made a lot of engineers tear up with this video. It’s a reminder that our passions are like gardens in that they improve with care, effort, and patience. If engineering is the soil, our dreams are what we plant there. Great stuff❤

    Man, Jeremiah living a lifelong dream I have had since the days of Gran Turismo 1. I will say, those feeling and emotions he had in the car, right before his race, are absolutely real. I remember when I did my first race day on my motorcycle. The amount of pressure, anxiety, fear..everything just comes at you all at once. It's honestly sooo nerve racking, I have seen people forfeit and not get on the grid because of the pressure. I am genuinely proud that Jeremiah pushed through and still competed. When I did my first race day, I got last place in all of my heats. But ya know what, I walked away with my motorcycle looking shiny and in 1 piece, and with a huge grin on my face, knowing that the experience further solidified my passion.

    15:00 man that shit hit hard... I felt that in my soul. Years ago I built my own car. A 96 civic si (we had those in canada) with an acura EL front clip. I bought as a bare shell from a junkyard. Over 2 years I spent $13k on mostly used parts except the drivetrain I built myself while in college for automotive. Literally built in my dad's backyard with hand tools. Not even an engine hoist. I jacked up the front, drug the drivetrain underneath, and lifted it into place standing on the shock towers with a strap over my shoulders. The only help I had the whole time was dad sticking the motor mounts in while I held the 350lb drivetrain on my shoulders. Fully built b18a1, high compression, gsr trans with ls 5th, lsd, stage 3 clutch etc My first time down the strip, I was having that same rush Jerry did, tears, everything. Dreamed of drag racing since I was a kid. 13.6 quarter my first pass with a perfect .500 light. Cried my eyes out like a little kid. Ended up selling the car for next to nothing right before my oldest son was born 8.5 yrs ago. I'll never forget that car or that moment as long as I live. I'll build another with my two boys someday. Good job Jeremiah, so proud of you man.
