Blake got an early start.

From a very early age Blake was exposed to engines and mechanical work at a very high level.  His dad was a drag racer as a young man and was successful in drag racing AA/FA class.  J.T. Young was self taught and ran blown nitro engines in the Different Drummer, setting short lived but exciting speed records in the AHRA.  Around the house, duct tape was always known as 200 mph tape.
