HeII maybe I am doing all three but I am guilty of being (and acting) like a kid in a candy story both when I look at her, or drive her. Guilty as charged for having a disorder that should absolutely be in DSM-IV (
Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders ), known as WIWWM-ICSSATC syndrome (What Is Wrong With Me - I Can't Stop Staring At The Crossfire). Oh, I also hear there is no cure.
I know where you're coming from. Today, I was under the car removing the exhaust, preparing for my custom setup and I just stopped and admired the engineering. I felt a peaceful calm come over me as I thought about how much the car has done for me. After my divorce, I felt a bit lost, with no direction to my life. My SRT has given me a goal to achieve and endless enjoyment, both driving and in modifying and immense satisfaction in that I have done all but a few small things myself.
