Have you lossed your racing spirit?
I think I have for the most part.
I hardly ever floor it anymore. And forget launching it, I might be bad as shit now.
Sad.

Get a motorcycle - the joy of riding will come back, you will also find that going fast in curves is a lot more entertaining than in the straights.

Arctic White Hardtop- '98 Formula M6
I was zipping through traffic the other day following some guy with a cowboy hat driving a dodge magnum. we never got above 90 though and the traffic was pretty thick. I cant afford to get pulled over anymore, or bye bye license.

Silver- Mexican killed my car
I have lost the racing bug. I'll take corners way to fast in the vette every now and then but that's it. I used drive or ride around with a friend every weekend looking for ricers but i guess i got burnt out on it

My life is a- Ben Stiller movie.
yes and no...right now i have to drive the t/a everyday b/c the beater is in disrepair. I end up not enjoying the power and allure of having a bad ass muscle car b/c it's become my daily driver. But normally, when I drive my beater all the time, I snap back and can't wait to get sick n twisted with the batmobile again.
However, i don't go out with the intension of finding races anymore...unless I call up zbizkit/zboner and say "lets romp on the highway" but I'm hoping to get to the track this year more than last

Go to a HPDE at your local road race track.
That will bring your spirit back in a big way

Red with Silver Graphics- 02 35th SS Camaro Ragtop
I played a little Physical Graffiti & In Through The Out Door today, all those good tunes just made me want to jump in the SS WOT, but, hve to wait at least another few weeks for the roads to get cleaned up. Major mess
I'm not as much as a throttle jockey as I used to be, don't need the tickets.

04 GTO QuickSilver- 95 MarkVIII wifey white
I don't like I used to. When I first got my gto, I could not help myself and was ready to plead insanity if stopped. I do still have my favorite back roads that I frequently visit though.
