Seem to me that a high number of musicains are into some form of motorsports compaired to a given number of non players, A seems a high number of race drivers/riders can play some music. Are we freaks? or just blessed ? Just to pull someones chain real racecars dont have fenders. God Bless Gig on /Race on!!

Paging Tim Cole (outlaws or sprint,...I really don't know the difference other than they go around in circles and sometimes flip spectacularly high up in the air).


If I could afford it I would be a "privateer" for FIA WRC or something related. I don't think I'd be any good at it but damn it looks like a lot of fun.
