Prologue

"36 races. 40 cars. 1 champion for the NASCAR SPRINT CUP SERIES. We're live here now at Daytona International Speedway, Daytona Beach, Florida for the Daytona 500. This season is very exciting for all the NASCAR fans if who will bring home the Harley J. Earl Trophy and claim the victory lane tonight."

"It's me." I declared to myself and put on my gloves. The crowd started to chant the names of their favorite drivers.

The rest of the day passes similarly right until I heard, "Drivers, start your engines!" All cars sat on the pit road and their engines roared to life.

When I race, all I picture is me, the road ahead, and my family. Speed—I am speed. I have always loved the thrill of speed. It makes me feel numb. Speed thrills but sometimes kills. Just chill and don't stop to drill. All your will, will become a dose of pill. I laughed at the thought and reminded me that racing is love. Love does not begin and end the way we seem to think it does—love is a race.
