Every young man growing up wants to race cars when they reach adulthood and you can just imagine most of them would start sooner if they could. Of course, many male adults and even females now too are getting into racing, as it is the ultimate challenge; Racing! The question is are you up for the challenge? Why do I ask? Well, simple, because this challenge comes with risk, grave risk, as it could kill you.
Still many accept that risk and their mechanic crews indeed, accept that responsibility. Racing is dangerous, but that is why the challenge is the ultimate in human competition. Having done a little racing myself and understanding the risk, the rewards and the thrill, I have come to accept the risk as a test of will. Now some may not understand this, but that is okay, for they are welcome to watch as I seize the day!
A racer always knows that every race can be their last, most have been there and experienced a crash. Some recover, others do not and still some are no longer with us, as they succumb. Vince Lombardi once said that the most competitive events attract the most competitive men, they are in it to battle, but ultimately to win. I have been told that racing is an ego sport, that we are in it for ourselves, and that is all about us. Perhaps they are right, yet I have the need for speed and you won't catch me driving a bus! Something Serious to Contemplate in 2008.
