I don't care who you are, that's funny!
Yeah, hooked now...
The first time is ok. It only gets better/worse after...depends upon your perspective.
Like I always tell my students, "Before you know it, you'll be wishing you could shoot this feeling straight into your veins."
Welcome to our addiction! ;D
ya try quiting cold turkey! ::) Not easy guys... :-/ The closest I got to the this drug was crashing at 35mph on my road bike, the rain is kinda fun too. Nothin' like T2 at BHF though :'(
I miss you guys :)
Stumpy
Poor Stumpy. Did he think detox would be easy? Once it's in ya, you always look back. We should go and just watch, YEAH RIGHT! Like an alcoholic going to watch a bar. Cold turkey, no more than the board but I'm hangin on to that. ;D

Man, I hear you guys, its definatly costly but like you said addiction, looks like I may need to pick up a part timer to support this addiction!!! Better yet, I need to hit the lotto or become weathly so I can do this every week!!!! :)

That is great! I love reading Peter Egan, I wait patiently every month to read his column.
I don't think its just racing that I'm addicted to myself. It's motorcycles in general. I'm hooked, sick, I love them. I just bought another Flat Track Bike, and I have a set of ice tires to I sometimes wonder if its a good thing or a bad thing that I got into motorcycles. Alot of ups and downs.
Just as long as I can make the mortagage payment, and pay my bills I guess I'm doing OK.
JUST A TIP FOR THE NEW PEOPLE COMING INTO THIS! RACE ON CASH ONLY!!!! DON'T RACE ON CREDIT CARDS! IF YOU HAVE THE CASH GO! IF NOT, BE STRONG AND HOLD OUT!
And remember this too, family comes before racing, never put racing in the way of your loved ones!

+1. I've managed to pay cash, but my original budget for the year is totally blown.
