I have raced off and on for the last eleven years and i can tell you quite
honestly that because of other drivers who are not paying attention,
haven't decided where they're going, or are just plain being stoopid, I
have to use the skills I have learned on the track everyday.

Sometimes that means exceeding the speed limit, making a sudden lane
change, and other things people associate with race drivers. I am not
ashamed nor afraid of my agressive driving. I have found that i have a
choice. i can either drive defensively or I can figure that every other
asshole on the road does not know how to drive. I have found since I
started driving from the latter perspective that my sheet metal doesn't
end up looking like a twisted mess anymore because some idiot that i
thought saw me, didn't.

As far as I am concerned there are two kinds of drivers: Maniacs and
lunatics. The difference being that the loonies don't have the foggiest
notion what the hell they're doing or if they do have failed thus far to
indicate such knowledge. The maniacs on the other hand know that the
lunatics are out there and not only continue to drive with the loonies on
the road but look out for them and take evasive action when they're
around.

I just thank my lucky stars i drive a 1976 Chevy Nova with a V8 and dual
exaust so I have the power i need just incase some idiot pulls up on my
rear bumber on the freeway and refuses to get off because s/he doesn't
think that my 80 in the 70 zone is fast enough. for them I slow down a
bit, shift and leave 'em eating dust.
