Where legends idle: The Chaparral cars that changed racing, still live in Midland
MIDLAND, Texas (KMID/KPEJ)- Just a few miles from the hum of oilfield operations sits one of the most important collections in motorsports history. The cars inside the Petroleum Museum's Chaparral Gallery don't just tell a story about speed, they tell a story about innovation that started right here in West Texas. In the 1960s, Jim Hall, a Midland-based engineer and racer, decided to do something few others had the courage or skill to attempt. He didn't just drive race cars. He built them. Hall, along with racing partner Hap Sharp, created the Chaparral series, a collection of radically advanced vehicles that redefined what was possible on a racetrack. 'Mr. Hall wanted to start from scratch, build a car, not buy one from anybody else,' said Keith Doucet, who now maintains the Chaparrals at the museum. 'He came out with this monocoque chassis that made it stiffer and lighter. It was a mid-engine car, and you didn't see that at the time.' Hall's innovations didn't stop at chassis design. He pioneered the use of aerodynamic downforce, designing cars that used air pressure to hug corners tighter and boost handling. That same concept would eventually influence modern passenger vehicles, sports cars, and nearly every class of professional racing. 'He figured out how to use air to help push the car to the ground so it handled better,' said Doucet. The Chaparral cars didn't just turn heads. They won races. The 2D model claimed victory at Nürburgring in 1966. The 2F took home a win at Brands Hatch in 1967. But many of Hall's ideas were considered too revolutionary, and several were banned from competition. 'One car had a high wing that you could adjust while driving,' Doucet said. 'It gave the car downforce in corners, but you could flatten it on the straightaway so it wouldn't slow you down. And they banned it.' The most extreme example was the Chaparral 2J, better known as the 'sucker car.' It had two engines, one for driving the car and another to power fans that created a vacuum under the car, essentially sucking it to the track for superior grip. It only competed in four races before it too was outlawed. 'When they banned it, Mr. Hall said, 'Every time I build a better mousetrap, they outlaw it,'' Doucet recalled. Although Doucet maintains the cars, very few people are allowed to drive them. Among that small group is Jim Edwards, who has been described as someone who 'brings them to life' during special live drives at the museum. Another is Hall's grandson, who continues the family's racing legacy and occasionally gets behind the wheel to carry on the tradition. For fans of the Chaparrals, these rare moments offer more than just noise and motion, they offer a direct link to history. Doucet began working with the Chaparrals in 2011 after Hall personally selected him for the job. There's no manual, no instruction book, and no spare parts. Each car is one of a kind. 'They're one-off, hand-built cars,' Doucet said. 'You can't change them. Mr. Hall didn't want them modified. He wanted them kept the way they were.' With his background in aircraft mechanics, Doucet treats the cars with the same level of precision and respect. 'I told Mr. Hall I'd treat these cars like airplanes. You don't mess with them. You just make sure they're safe and solid. And he said, that's what I want.' He's been working on them ever since. 'I can't make him look any better than what he is, because he's already the best that I know,' Doucet said. 'But I could make it look worse. And I don't want to do that.' Despite their significance, the Chaparrals are still something of a hidden gem in their hometown. Doucet said many people in Midland don't realize the cars are even here. Meanwhile, fans from around the world, especially from Europe, where the cars raced, make special trips just to visit the museum and see them. 'There are people who've lived in Midland their whole lives who don't know these cars are here,' Doucet said. 'And there are people who fly in from other countries because they've followed these cars for decades.' Doucet said the museum is constantly evolving, with new exhibits, educational programs, and technology. But for him, the magic is still in the machines and the way they make people feel. 'You get to know each one of the cars,' he said. 'They're like old friends. Each one has its own personality.' And when they start up, he said, everything else fades away. 'There's nothing else that sounds like it,' Doucet said. 'When a young person hears that, they're hooked. That's what happened to me.' He hopes to pass that feeling on. For now, he plans to keep the Chaparrals running as long as he can. When the time comes, he'll train someone else to take the wheel. 'As long as I'm able to do it, I'll do it,' he said. 'And when the next person comes behind me, I just want them to know how important it is to keep the cars the way they were built.' From a Midland garage to racetracks across the globe, the Chaparral cars represent a legacy of innovation, craftsmanship, and homegrown genius, a legacy that still has fuel in the tank. While the museum preserves the cars, it's the community that helps keep them running. Through the Chaparral Pit Crew Fan Club, supporters can play a direct role in maintaining these legendary vehicles. Membership fees go toward restoration efforts and, more importantly, help inspire future generations of engineers and innovators by sharing the groundbreaking history of Jim Hall's creations. Chaparral Pit Crew Members also get an exclusive invite to one of the museum's most anticipated events of the year: the 13th Annual Party on the Patio, taking place Saturday, June 7, from 6 to 8 p.m. The evening includes a live drive of the Chaparral 2F, dinner, and a Q&A with Hall himself. To RSVP, contact Luanne Thornton at lthornton@ or call 432-683-4403. The museum also hosts live drives of the Chaparrals approximately every other month, when one of the cars is started and driven in the circle outside the building. These runs are more than just a spectacle; they're part of the cars' routine maintenance and give visitors a rare glimpse of living history.

Brothers acquitted in connection with 2021 Amber Alert in Montreal's West Island
Two brothers accused of kidnapping their younger sister and prompting an Amber Alert in 2021 were acquitted at the Montreal courthouse on Monday. Crown Prosecutor Charles Doucet said he was surprised by the verdict but noted there were a lot of "grey zones" during the trial. "What we know is that the victim retracted her versions of what she said in court," Doucet said. "The judge does not accept her version and concluded that he heard many lies." The incident at the centre of the court case dates back to July 26, 2021 when police were called to B12 Burger restaurant in Kirkland in Montreal's West Island, where the sister worked, at around 11:10 p.m. An Amber Alert went out just after 6:20 a.m. the next day and was lifted less than an hour after when the sister, who was 16 years old at the time, showed up at a local police station. The teen told police she had been kidnapped by her brothers, then 21 and 22, and Doucet said surveillance video of the incident was presented in court as material proof. He added, however, that the girl had changed her story to say she had been "consenting." In the new version of events, she said she had called her brothers for help after being harassed by a man. The brothers were acquitted of the charges pertaining to their sister, which included kidnapping, sequestering and assault. The pair was, however, found guilty of assaulting an employee of the restaurant who had tried to intervene as events unfolded on the night of July 26. Doucet specified that the employee was not the alleged harasser. Sentencing is expected to take place on Oct. 7.

I watched my dad shoot my karate teacher dead on live TV – any father would have done it but I DIDN'T want him to die
"If it were your child, you would've done the same thing too." These were the words uttered by Gary Plauché after he gunned down his son's karate teacher on live television. 6 6 6 It was a moment Jody, then just an 11-year-old boy, will never forget. Gary was hailed as a hero by the American people for his actions. But for Jody, witnessing his dad murder his rapist has only created decades of arguments with his father. Watching the evening news back home, Jody watched on in horror as he saw Gary shoot dead his groomer Jeff Doucet as the sick thug was marched through an airport by police. As the paedophile was being shipped back to Baton Rouge for sentencing he was hauled in front of waiting TV cameras. Aware of the exact location of his son's abuser, Gary waited for Doucet to walk past as his hid his identity under a baseball cap and sunglasses. The news cameras caught the moment Gary quickly turned around after pretending to use the pay phone and unleashed a fatal strike. Gary drew his gun, pulled the trigger and fired a single shot into the side of the paedo's head at point blank range. The dramatic footage of Doucet's body dropping to the ground surrounded by police soon went viral as Gary was hailed as a hero across the world. Police who arrested Gary at the airport asked him why he pulled the trigger. He responded: "If it were your child, you would've done the same thing, too." Jody - who was 11 years old when he was kidnapped and abused by the vile karate coach - has now said his father only gave the sex offender the "easy way out" by killing him. Months of twisted abuse Karate teacher Doucet had lured Jody into his dojo before forcing him to endure a horrific campaign of sexual abuse. Jody trained with Doucet virtually every single day alongside dozens of unsuspecting parents and children. But after each practice, Doucet would abuse Jody in a backroom of the sports centre. Jody remained silent about the abuse for months. Chilling moment grinning paedo says 'we're enjoying ourselves' with young boy on his lap in sick Thailand holiday video And his parents were excited for their boy to be out and doing sports so didn't see the signs as they emerged. The abuse ramped up as Doucet continued to avoid justice for his depraved actions until one day he panicked after a warrant was out for his arrest over fraud allegations. His twisted mind soon created a plan which would allow him to flee the cops as well as continue his reign of torment over a young Jody. One morning, the paedo teacher arrived at the Plauchés' doorstep and asked to take Jody was a ride in his car. He promised the boy's mother he would be 15 minutes. Instead, Doucet took the boy almost 2,000 miles away from his home in Louisiana to a private motel in California. 6 6 When they arrived, Doucet knew he was in trouble for both the abduction and the fraud issues. To hide himself he shaved his beard and dyed Jody's blond hair a dark black. He then spent days raping and molesting the 11-year-old, Jody said. It took an agonising 10 days for the hell to finally end. Doucet was caught after police raided the motel after Jody phoned up his heartbroken mum who thought he had gone missing. Dad's haunting decision But Jody told The Sun Online that he wasn't happy with his dad's revenge killing and would have preferred his abuser to rot in jail. Jody, now in his 50s, said: "At first I was upset with what my father did because at age 11 - I just wanted Jeff to stop and not necessarily dead." He later told the MailOnline: "Jeff would've likely gone to prison for the rest of his life, but Daddy gave him the easy way out." Gary only spent the weekend in jail as he was spared prison time in favour of probation and community service. Officials instead handed him a suspended sentence for manslaughter. The judge ruled that due to the nature of the crime and Gary's prior clean record he was unlikely to commit another crime in the future. Despite his dad walking free and the family being reunited, Jody continued to be upset by his dad's actions. Gary continued to say he didn't regret killing as Jody explained why he was hurt. This led to a fracture developing in their relationship which was already opening up due to Doucet's despicable crimes. The paedo claimed he was jealous of Gary and Jody's relationship and wanted to prove to the child he "loved him more", Jody said. The footage of the shooting was huge news in the US when it happened with Jody seeing it on the TV and in the newspaper. He remembered feeling like it "wasn't real" the first few times he saw it but continued to watch it "over and over" again. And the more times Jody saw it the more mad he became at his dad. When his mum first spoke about the attack with him, Jody said he actually burst into tears with rage. His emotions were made even worse by the reaction of people who supported Gary. Jody said: "I think for a lot of people who have not been satisfied by the American justice system my dad stands as a symbol of justice. "My dad did what everybody says what they would do yet only few have done it. Plus, he didn't go to jail. "That said, I can not and will not condone his behaviour. I understand why he did what he did. "But it is more important for a parent to be there to help support their child than put themselves in a place to be prosecuted." He told me he figured he was going to die so he felt he had nothing to lose Jody Plaucheon why his dad shot his abuser Eventually things did get back to normal as Gary explained his actions to his son. "He told me he figured he was going to die so he felt he had nothing to lose," Jody explained. "He told me one of them, if not both of them were gonna die that night." Jody also admitted he didn't have much anger towards Docuett at the time despite what he put him through. Now Jody understands the paedophile was a "complete sociopath who lacked feeling or empathy for others and only used people for his own gain". Five years after his dad died of a stroke in 2014, Jody released a book on the situation titled: "Why, Gary, Why?". The name was inspired by one officer's comments when he pinned Gary to the ground inside the airport. Jody had first started writing about his experiences in 1993, but shelved it until he picked it up again in 2016.

EXCLUSIVE My dad shot dead my karate instructor on live TV when I was 11. Any other father would have done the same
No amount of training could have protected disgraced karate instructor Jeff Doucet from the surprise attack that awaited him when he arrived at Baton Rouge Metropolitan Airport on March 16, 1984. Doucet was escorted through the terminal in handcuffs in front of a procession of TV news cameras. Lurking by a bank of telephones with his back to the commotion, a baseball cap pulled down over his eyes, and a receiver pressed to his ear, was an incensed Gary Plauché. He had a score to settle. A succession of camera flashes erupted as Doucet was forcefully led past the press, with reporters scrambling to line up the perfect shot. Also readying to hone his aim was Plauché. 'Here he comes,' Plauché whispered down the line to his friend as Doucet passed behind. 'You're about to hear a shot.' With that, Plauché turned on his heels, lined Doucet up in the sights of his .38 snub-nosed revolver and pulled the trigger at point-blank. A thunderous crack sounded, and Doucet slumped to the ground in a bloodied heap. Two police officers raced to subdue and disarm Plauché. 'Why, Gary?! Why'd you do it?' pleaded one of the cops, who recognized Plauché instantly. 'If it were your child, you would've done the same thing, too,' he sobbed in response. Within 24 hours, Doucet was dead. Plauché, a salesman and former news cameraman, was later celebrated nationwide as a vigilante hero. But watching at home in horror was his 11-year-old son, Jody Plauché, who was angry at his father for resorting to such violence. 'I didn't want Jeff dead,' Jody, now 52, told the Daily Mail. 'I just wanted him to stop.' A fateful meeting Jody crossed paths with Doucet by chance in 1983, when he was just a fifth-grader. He lived with his family in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. A good athlete, Jody was already enrolled in numerous sports teams, but agreed to accompany his younger brother to karate lessons. When their original instructor didn't turn up one day, the Plauché brothers were referred to Doucet's class at a better-equipped dojo across town. Jody remembers feeling impressed by the young and charismatic Doucet, an ex-Marine he soon came to view as his best friend. In fact, the whole Plauché family was eventually taken with him. Jody's parents viewed Doucet as a blessing, crediting him with getting their sons into shape. They regularly invited him over for family game nights and dinners. But during class, Doucet was beginning to show Jody an inordinate amount of attention. Before long, Doucet began to see how far he could go. 'He would test boundaries with all the kids, and then pick out the ones he thought would be best and the most compliant,' said Jody. 'How it worked with me is, he'd help me stretch, and then he'd start touching my inner thighs... that was his way of normalizing the inappropriate touch that was coming.' For Jody, that horrifying moment came one day when Doucet asked the then 10-year-old if he'd like to learn to drive a car. Doucet drove a Datsun 280ZX, and young Jody leapt at the chance to get behind the wheel. Once he was perched on Doucet's knees, he felt his teacher's hands land on his lap. 'I remember thinking, 'Whoa, what's going on here?'' recounted Jody. 'Then I started rationalizing it, thinking maybe it was an accident. But he knew what he was doing. He was seeing what he could get away with. And that's textbook pedophilia.' Soon, Doucet's inappropriate behavior gave way to outright sexual abuse. Jody hauntingly recalled how, one night during a team retreat, Doucet had taken seven members of the dojo away and booked them all into one twin-bed motel room. Four children were in one bed, and Jody and two other students were with Doucet in the other. In the night, Jody woke up to Doucet groping his crotch. Paralyzed in fear, he laid there pretending to be asleep. The next morning, the two of them were driving to the store together when Doucet asked him if he could not tell anyone about what happened the night before. 'I was playing dumb, asking him, 'What do you mean? What did you do last night?' 'And I think that's the moment he knew, 'Okay, I have him. He's not going to say anything.' 'That's when the abuse stepped up... he abused me almost every day until he kidnapped me on Feb. 19, 1984.' Scared into silence Jody was aware that what Doucet was doing to him was wrong, but he was too afraid to speak up. A few years earlier, his parents had made him and his older brother watch a TV special movie, chronicling how a young girl was lured into abuse by her pedophile softball coach. His mother told him that there are some adults out there who try to take advantage of children, and it's important to report any inappropriate behavior right away. His father promised him that if anyone ever laid a finger on him, he wouldn't hesitate to kill them. Jody knew his father wasn't joking. Telling on Doucet would almost certainly sign his death warrant, so he decided to stay quiet. 'Maybe if I'd told them right at the start, then maybe Daddy wouldn't have killed Jeff,' Jody said. 'But I didn't want to upset my parents, so that's why I kept my mouth shut, and that's why most kids keep their mouths shut. 'Once my dad found out all the things he'd done to me and made me do to him, that was the line that drove my dad over the edge, I think - it was those details.' At this time, the Plauchés didn't have any reason to suspect anything inappropriate about Doucet. Under his tutelage, Jody won a trophy at the Fort Worth Pro-Am, and the team began competing in regional competitions. Jody trained with Doucet virtually every day, and after each practice, the other boys would be sent off to get snacks while Doucet abused Jody in a backroom. Even when Jody came up with all kinds of excuses why he didn't want to go to karate practice, Doucet would show up at his house to drag him away. Believing his coach knew best, Jody's parents didn't stop him. 'He didn't just groom me, he groomed my whole family,' said Jody. 'He gained my trust as well as their trust and had us all fooled.' 'I'm taking you away' In early 1984, Doucet made a confession to Jody: He'd run into some financial trouble writing bad checks, and he owed a lot of money to the wrong people. If he couldn't come up with $15,000 soon, he'd have to leave the state. 'If I don't get the money, I'm going to California and taking you with me,' Doucet, then 25, told him. By February, a warrant was out for his arrest for fraud. When he showed up on the Plauchés' doorstep on February 19, his secret and twisted plan had already been set into motion. Doucet told Jody's mom he needed to borrow her car to drive to a nearby home where he was awaiting a carpet delivery, and asked if Jody could ride along to help him. 'We'll be back in 15 minutes,' he assured her. Jody was called outside and got into the car with Doucet. 'Where are we going?' Jody asked him. 'We're going,' replied Doucet. 'We're going to California.' Doucet then drove to his mother's house in Portland, Texas. He told his mom he was planning on taking Jody to New York and he needed his brother's birth certificate so he could get a fake ID. Jody's mom called Doucet's mother and asked if she'd seen her son. 'Oh yeah,' Doucet's mom told her. 'He's got Jody and he told me they'd be back in the morning.' The next morning, Doucet and Jody boarded a bus in Orange, Texas, bound for Los Angeles. Jody told the Daily Mail that he wasn't frightened at any point along the way. He said he was enthralled at the prospect of seeing the Hollywood Sign and going to Disneyland. And because the bus journey took more than two days, Jody said the trip gave him a 48-hour respite from Doucet's sexual abuse. 'He couldn't abuse me on the bus, and he was so preoccupied with where we were going next and the fact he'd abducted a kid, that he hardly touched me at all,' Jody said. When they arrived in California, Doucet shaved his beard and dyed Jody's blond hair black. Then, he checked them both into a motel, where he proceeded to molest and rape Jody. Eventually, Doucet made contact with Jody's mom. In an attempt to throw investigators off their scent, he told her they were in New York. 'If you don't come and meet us in New York, you'll never see your son again,' he told her. Jody's parents frantically searched for their son for an agonizing 10 days. A call home from Jody provided the break they needed, as police were able to trace their location. 'I could hear the relief in her voice,' Jody said, recounting that call. 'I told her that I was fine and no harm had been done to me. 'Then, not long after, I was sitting on the bed close to the door and Jeff was on the phone, and I want to say 12 police officers came bursting in and scared the s**t out of me.' Vigilante justice Jody was taken into the care of police, but continued to deny Doucet had abused him. The horrifying truth was revealed when he was taken to a hospital and administered a rape kit. Jody said he knew then he didn't have to lie anymore. 'I was going to continue to lie until that hospital report came back,' said Jody. 'And then once it came back, I wouldn't be able to deny it, but I could also tell Jeff that it wasn't me who told. 'So many people think I lied to protect Jeff, but I was lying to protect me… I fully expected Jeff would get out of prison after a few years, because I didn't understand how everything worked at that age. 'It turns out Jeff would've likely gone to prison for the rest of his life, but Daddy gave him the easy way out.' During an emotional reunion with his son at the airport, Plauché told reporters he felt helpless during his son's kidnapping. But in the days that followed, and as details of the sickening abuse Doucet subjected his son to came to light, Plauché enacted a plan to get revenge. On March 16, 1984, he was drinking at a local bar with friends, one of whom worked at a local news station, who told him Doucet was due to be extradited back to Baton Rouge that night, landing precisely at 9:08 p.m. Plauché headed straight to the airport, with a pistol tucked into his boot. The rest was captured live on the news. Finding forgiveness Plauché was arrested and charged with second-degree murder. He spent two days in jail before being released on bond. Disgust remained rife for the recently departed Doucet while Plauché was showered in praise. 'I'd [have] shot him, too, if he done what they say he done to my boys,' Linda Boyd, a 25-year-old mom of two who was working in the airport at the time, told the Washington Post in 1984. 'Only I'd [have] gut-shot him three or four times and he'd [have] suffered before he died… Plauché shouldn't do any time.' 'Damn right,' echoed Murray Curry, 47. 'He got justice. [He] Saved the taxpayers money by blowing Doucet away. Some jury would have turned him loose.' A Gary Plauché Defense Fund was set up by admiring members of the public, and Jody recalls his father being overcome with 'fan mail' bearing messages of support and thanks for vanquishing Doucet. 'The support was overwhelming, and my mother and father made sure to respond to every single letter they received,' said Jody. 'And I just knew that my dad was gonna get off, that he wasn't going to jail.' The judicial courts sided with the court of public opinion. Plauché got seven years on a suspended sentence, five years probation and 300 hours of community service. Despite all the public praise, Jody said he initially found it difficult to forgive him for killing Doucet. While he doesn't see his father as a hero for his vigilantism, he does understand why he did it. 'I think for a lot of people who have not been satisfied by the American justice system, my dad stands as a symbol of justice,' Jody explained. 'I understand why he did it, absolutely. And I know my dad, and when he said he would kill anyone who touched me, I knew he'd kill him. 'But I cannot and will not condone his behavior. 'To this day, Jeff going to jail for the rest of his life is still my preferred sentencing for him.' A survivor's story It wasn't too long before Jody forgave his father - their life soon returned to normal and the pair rarely spoke of Doucet again. Plauché died in 2014. Still, four decades later, the video of him gunning down Doucet emerges on social media from time to time - viewers are largely celebrating his actions. For Jody, the road to overcoming his trauma was long and at times unpredictable. He went on to attend Louisiana State University, earning a degree in general studies with minors in philosophy, speech communication and psychology, which led to a job as a sexual assault counselor. Today, he sits on the board of the Louisiana Foundation Against Sexual Assault and travels the country holding seminars warning parents about signs of abuse. In 2019, he wrote a book, Why Gary Why?: The Jody Plauché Story, about the abuse he suffered and his dad's infamous shooting of Doucet, which he's currently shopping around for a limited series or movie adaptation. 'I wanted to give victims hope,' he said of writing the book. 'I wanted to give parents knowledge, and I wanted outsiders to get a general understanding about sexual violence and sexual abuse.' 'Someone who read the book accused me of bragging,' he said. 'Hell yeah, I'm bragging. 'But I'm also trying to let other people know that they can get to where I'm at now, where you can feel like you're not a victim or defined by what happened to you. 'I don't look at myself as a victim. I'm a survivor, and I wanted to take what happened to me and turn it into a positive. 'I think I'm doing a pretty good job of that.'

Astro Bot director says precisely what the industry needs to hear: "It's OK to make a small game" because "players today have a backlog of games" they can't complete
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. Following its Game of the Year win at last year's Game Awards, Astro Bot just took home another award, this time for having a director that's saying exactly what the video game industry needs to hear right now. Yes, I made up the award. Speaking during a Game Developers Conference panel that GamesRadar+ attended, Team Asobi studio head Nicolas Doucet said the goal at the outset of making Astro Bot was to make a game that could be finished in a reasonable amount of time. "From the start, we were in the mindset that it's OK to make a compact game ... it's OK to make a small game," said Doucet. "So for us, it means that we're making something of such scale that we can control it fully. That's from a development standpoint. But not only that. For the players, we all know that players today have a backlog of games and cannot complete their games, so the prospect of a game you can actually complete is a really persuasive argument." Persuasive, indeed. Doucet is so persuasive that I think I'll go ahead and do another Astro Bot run instead of playing Assassin's Creed Shadows. That's not true, but the point is, there are too many Assassin's Creed Shadows-sized games, and I'm at the point where I'm begging for mercy. My backlog can't take another massive RPG - it'll crumble under its own mighty weight. Anyway, yes, please make more small games, people. Even if my personal pleas are falling on unsympathetic ears, remember that Astro Bot is a small game, and it won Game of the Year. You can do it too. Team Asobi's gigantic 2024 proves it's time to free Astro Bot from PlayStation's past.
