LOL, this is one of the most misheard lyrics ever. It is in fact "revved up like a deuce, another runner in the night." Originally, it was performed by Bruce Springsteen written as "Cut loose like a deuce" in reference to a ford coup deuce, circa 1932. Manfred Mann changed it to "revved up like a deuce" but essentially meant the same thing.
back on topic, I also am curious as to how the roller fits over the ball while not leaving the starting box. Are you planning to have it flop off the wall like in the video?
