On the track race prep:

You maintain an aloof intelligent exterior that we long to break through, but which might intimidate some men. It shows a complexity of personality that few possess. Based on these pictures, I am giving you an 8.4 on the official Trout Recreant Scale of Slutiness. You are a slut, but only in the best possible way, and any man lucky enough to see that side of you should count his blessings.

That particular car cost me $3800, it cost $125 per race.

Of course there are other expenses like an engine rebuild ($400) and supplies. Plus transporting myself to the track and buying lunch for the pit crew.

Thanks for the good words.
