CD Kim Ngo wrapped up a CMT production called American Speed, produced by Stephen David Entertainment. The three-part docudrama miniseries told the story of NASCAR from the dusty dirt roads of 1930s to the modern black asphalts of 2000s. In total, Ngo and her costume crew dressed 60 main characters and 600+ back- ground actors within the eight decades of costumes. It was a chal- lenge executing this in rural West Virginia, but the production was a success, and they're all happy to be back in Los Angeles.
