You think the primary purpose of wings is to PREVENT flight.

- You feel compelled on a road trip to beat your previous best time.

- You are happiest when your street car's tires are worn to racing depth (wear bars showing).

- When something falls off of your car, you wonder how much weight you just saved.

- When you hear 'overcooked it', instead of food you think 'off the track'.

- You change engine oil every other week.

- You sometimes hear little noises from your passengers when you get on the throttle right after turning in.

- You thoroughly enjoy showing the tailgater behind how to drive around a highway off-ramp.

- Your racing budget is one of the big three -- mortgage, car payments/maintenance, dating.

- Your email address refers to your race car rather than to you.

- You walk proper lines through the grocery store.

- You've been known to yell "It means 'check your mirrors' dammit!" at your television.

- You've paid $4.00 a gallon for gas without complaining.

- You buy new parts because you don't know where you put the spares.

- You bought a race car before buying a house.

- You bought a race car before buying furniture for the new house.

- You're looking for a tow vehicle and still haven't bought furniture!

- You find that you need a new house because you've outgrown your garage and the neighbors are threatening violence if you park one more vehicle on the street or in the front yard.
