Dayum!! I saw "Will Cooksey Killed...." and was scared to read the rest. I'm glad he's okay. I met him at Petite LeMans 2 years ago...super nice guy.

I've never understood burnout contests. They all look the same, and burning rubber smells awful. People really like that smell?

I do.


But I attribute it to the fact that my mom spent so much time at the drag strip while she was pregnant with me.

If you don' like the smell of gas, rubber, a new motor started for the first time and things of that nature, you might be in the wrong place.

Car smells I like:

Race gas
Hot race engines
New interiors

Car smells that smell like azz:

Burning rubber
Gear Oil
Blown motors
