Imagine getting your first car at the age of 15. Your dream car a "64 Chevy impala (in 1998 ). then you goto college get an engineering Degree . You apply for your dream job . You get hired as a designer for Hendricks motor sports. Yes THE Hendricks motor sports of NASCAR fame. 8 years later you are still working there and you still have and drive that Chevy impala bright red. A pretty nice life.

This is a true story the life of Richie Parker a young black man from the south and by the way he was born with No arms.

And yes there is video.
