He was feathering the clutch to not go flying over the curb into the parked cars, then stalled.

Here's a history of supermodifieds.

Some period supermod footage.

Oval racing isn't popular really outside of the US, Canada or Australia, but these are the cars the rest of the world never sees. This is what happens when rules are relaxed and a car is built specifically for oval racing. It's what Indy cars would have turned into had the rear engine F1 cars never come to the US and Indy racing stayed primarily on ovals. Nothing trumps these on a half mile or shorter track, not even an F1 car.

Am I correct in assuming that his brakes aren't even getting hot because they're squeaking like that? It looks like his arms aren't even a part of his body and their sole purpose is to keep that car under control. Insane.

From my limited knowledge of brake dynamics, they (there are disc brakes on the GT40, right?) squeal as the piston and backing plate of the pad enter some resonant frequency. How this relates to the heat of the pad and disc I have no idea.

Some race pads squeal like mad whether they are cold, or so hot they have smoke rolling off of them.

Yeah. Lots of motorsports do the same thing if they don't have a proper window net. I think F1 does for one.

That reminds me very much of the video of the Ruf CTR on Nurburgring where the driver, Stefan Roser, is sawing madly on the wheel the entire way around, including going around a left-hand corner with so much oversteer that the wheel is cocked 90 degrees clockwise.
