How excited do you get about racing ??
Come on, since WHEN is there an age limit (too young/too old!?!)...nadda! My Dad warned me about the addicitive nature of playing with hot rods even though he never raced. The first time I went to a dragstrip, it was beyond cool and 2 yrs later my first trip down the track was like somebody had given me something no drug can ever replace...at least not for me. It's been a few years since I've been to the track and saying I miss it is incomprehensible. For me, I have to be involved; in the support crew, owner, wrench or the glory seat, it matters not...I JUST NEED to be involved. Years ago I was one of the better drivers but like so many, I lacked the capitol/funds to get deeply involved so for me it was basically a dream, hopefully not a wet one either?! However, that did not change (nor has it changed) over the last 5 decades as like so many, I still get that 'spark' when I'm around an open-header car or at the local track hearing that raw horsepower in the staging lanes...hmm!!!
