It’s interesting to read the different views of others, and what this game means to them, and how they choose to do things in life. I certainly agree with Camel on how life can change in the blink of an eye, my recent experience can attest to that. Growing up in a racing environment I saw many different types. Personally, it was always my goal to own and race a proper 250 Grand Prix race bike. I didn’t really care if I won, just the sheer joy of owning that machine and riding it around a racetrack was enough. But don’t get me wrong, I still liked to do well and usually finished near the top. I won my final race down in Loudan New Hampshire and was completely over the top when that happened. My youngest brother was the opposite though, his only belief was racing to win, and with his talent and mindset, he did just that. Winning to me was a bonus, I enjoyed the competition and comaradery the best, and that is exactly how I feel on Monday nights. This past week was a great example, close fights and close points results, seeing Jeff get his first win in a long time, that sort of thing does it for me.
I don’t need to be the best at what I do, I just try to do it to the best of my abilities.
