Anoreth is very fond of fast cars. I have to remind her regularly that the Purple Thing *isn’t* one!
I had a coworker in the insurance business who rebuilt and raced Corvettes. It’s like a cult!
It’s “just” an addiction. ;o]
You should see the photos of the car my friend has, when he first got it. Talk about ugly! LOL
When I met him, it was a really pretty marine blue, and was still street legal, meaning I could drive it. I did. Twice!
Now, it’s got almost 1000 horsepower, and the passenger seat has been replaced with electronics. It’s also red and silver with a touch of blue. His mother now calls it, “The Redhead.”
If Anoreth ever got a chance to race a car (and she could take the Purple Thing to the track and race it as it is) she would probably be hooked for life.
Here, the cops have Midnight Madness where the teens can come and race whatever they are driving. It’s ALWAYS packed, both with drivers and fans.
Yah. Like that.
Wiener dog races, monster car runs and pig races today at the LA county fair.
