You sleep,eat, and dream racing; you pretend the shoppin cart at the grocery store is your car and your drift around corners to shave off some time; and when you find yourself up at 3 in the morning making car noises and lookin at car sites because your bored. Anyone else got some good ones?

You know your addicted to racing when......
...it takes you an hour to drive a ten-minute route because you followed somebody that might want to race!
...you automatically turn-off your a/c when taking-off from lights...in case that sedan next to you decides to jump:evillol:
There's more...but there's no need to incriminate myself any further:uhoh:...

...you wear your Simpson racing gear to bed.
...you keep your garage cleaner than your house.
...when you drive you only have two speeds, fast and really fast.
...the only reason you have a radar detector is to find cops to race.
...you eat your wheaties before every race.
...you have memorized every episode of Speed Racer and Initial D
(ok lets see what else do I do)

... You shower with a helmet on.
... Your shower has a safety cage.
... Your computer chair has a 5 point harness.
... You had to get Cable/DSL internet so you could race your friends at downloading.
... You have a practice tree infront of your toilet. (why not? what else you going to do while on the can?)
... You sacrifice tools and garage supplies to your motor.
... Your home library consists of Parts catalogs, Car mags, and repair manuals... Alphabetised.
... Guys at local parts stores know your First and Last name by heart. Along with Home phone, and Address.
... You know the horsepower and torque ratings of all the cars you see regularly on your way to work/school... Incase you have a impromptu race.
... You have panic attacks when a new car you know nothing about joins you on your daily commute.
... You go to local car shows to check out the local competition. (Guilty as charged)
... You underate your own car's performance. (Guilty like crazy, 425hp Motor with 295hp factory sticker on aircleaner:evillol: )

... When walking behind someone you draft them waiting for the perfect time to take them on the outside. And you downshift to do so.
... When waiting at the crosswalk to change, you stage up as if you're at the drags. When it goes when the little man goes green you leave scratch on the curb and make burn out noises.
... You body check your friends into bushes or random objects and think 'Rubbins Racin.'
... When walking you slow down when going past a cop.
... When walking and you see a car go past thats speeding or burns out. You think "Pfff I can do that... Nothing special" no matter how cool the spectacul was.
... When walking and you fart, you speed up not cause of the smell but cause you've hit your nitrous.
... You run through the Mall, trying to get chased out by Mall security and reinact the 'Getaway' movies on the internet.

I thought up that and started laughing so hard at the image, a helmet cam of some duder running through a mall pushing people down... knocking crap over... jumpin through the Orange Julius booth. All the while you hear the screams and name calling of the Security guys in the background. Finally the guy loses the security people by first hopping in the Merry-go-round then hiding in Santa's Village. :rofl:

non-aspirated eh? I guess your car doesn't run. So you'd have to make sounds. :smooch:

When someone asks me what I've got done, I always say "Intake and exhaust".
Cuz ya know, it does have intake and exhaust. I didn't say that's ALL it has :lol:
I always walk a good racing line. It only makes sense, it's faster and more efficient cuz you get more distance per steps, even though each individual step is the same distance. The sad part isn't that I know that, but when I walk a bad line, I think to myself "Sloppy!" :rofl:
Or when I get pissed at my girlfriend cuz shes walking a bad line and therefore making me walk it.
