As a child, Roger had always been fascinated by cars, he had a deep passion for them. Whenever he saw a car speeding down the street, he couldn't help but follow it with his eyes.
He was always asking his parents to take him to the car shows that were held in their town, hoping to discover new and interesting cars. However, his parents never took him.
Instead, Roger began to explore his newfound passion in other ways. He started reading about cars and began collecting magazine issues devoted solely to cars. Every weekend he anxiously pored over the images of the cars, analyzing the details and imagining what it would be like to be behind the wheel.
Slowly but surely, Roger began learning more and more about cars. He made plans to build his own car, and in the meantime he started sketching designs of cars he wanted to build eventually, labeling the different components and writing how long each component ought to be.
He wanted to design the perfect car, but for what purpose? The obvious answer to you may be to drive it, however, this is not the case.
