Yeah, Tom picked the biggest guy there (Doug Drost) to stand in front to make the Geo look small 😄  
It gets close to 2 miles per pound, and a little more than that on Ron L’s wood. I think he soaks it in gasoline or something.

Ha! Ha! No magic translators in my fading-away brain.  
He excellent show and tell presentation is the key. He has a slow, well modulated voice style. Condensate - then he shoes draining. Carbon monoxide and he points at fuelgas piping and then says engine. Carburetor and then he is pointing at a re-purposed EFI throttle body.

Ha! know well the english words to that music. “Lavatian” sounds nice but none of the non-technical words are understandable by me.  
American english raised-up it is only broadcast French can I kinnda’ sorta’ 25% follow live spoken.

At the end of the tractor video, he writes UZVARA on the hood in marker. Google translate tells me that means VICTORY! Seems appropriate.
