"To live every day as if it had been stolen from death, that is how I would like to live. To feel the joy of life, as Eve felt the joy of life. To separate oneself from the burden, the angst, the anguish that we all encounter every day. To say I am alive, I am wonderful, I am. I am. That is something to aspire to."

- Garth Stein, The Art of Racing in the Rain

Disclaimer:

1. The NASCAR racers mentioned are real actual people with the exception of Clint Adams who is my OC. Any attitude, dialogue, or behavior they display is purely fictional except for references to their real career wins and performances. 

2. I have done heavy research into the world of NASCAR for this story. This includes watching races, reading up on articles, looking at stats and so on. But like anything I am bound to make mistakes. I am only human. 

Thank you for reading and enjoy the ride.

Growing up in Fort Collins, Colorado, being a biker was definitely not uncommon. In fact, if you didn't have one member of your family own a motorcycle, you probably weren't from there. Elizabeth (Liz) Collins wasn't a stranger to the speed of life. Her family owned a Motorcycle shop and her brother won every race he signed up for. So when he loses one, she's all the more intrigued by who he's lost to. Jason Morris was very keen to let people know who he was in his new town now that he'd moved in with his father. More specifically, he wanted to prove himself to his Motorcycle Club as the newest Prospective Member. Step one: beat Eric Collins in a motorcycle race. Complete.

They're both about to break the law in every form possible. But to stay together, some shit has to fall apart. - "You're very good at sweet nothings." I had said after our third round. "They're easy to come up with when the subject is as-" I placed a kiss on his lips to shut him up, not accepting another compliment. I sat straddling his legs again, running my fingers up and down his chest. "Seriously, if you don't stop I think I'm gonna hide underneath the covers." He wiggled his eyebrows and lifted the blanket below him. "I'd be down for that." I gasped and whacked him on the shoulder repeatedly, until he flipped us over and was on top of me. He placed his legs on either side of mine and ran his hands through my hair, staring at every part of my face. "Where have you been all my life?" "Waiting." - live on the wild side.

"You were worried about me, Specs?" He smirked. "No, Tyler. I hoped that someone cut up your corpse and fed it to paranas. Obviously I was, you idiot! I'm a doctor. Worrying about people is kind of programmed into my system. It's a curse if you ask me," I surprised myself a lot more than I thought was possible with my answer. And what did he do? Laugh! He fucking laughed! Not full on rolling- on- the- floor laughter but a laugh nonetheless. "This isn't funny, Tyler." "It kind of is. Almost a month ago, I would've sworn that you hated me. Be careful, Specs," he squinted down at me, "or you might actually sound as if you like me." I rolled my eyes. "Don't flatter yourself. I was concerned. Don't confuse that with affection. It's two very, very different things." *** When you think that all is not lost in the world. That not all men are pricks and that not all sushi is bad. When you think that there is a light, no matter how dim, at the end of the tunnel. When you think that life isn't the ruthless bitch you've always thought it was... It turns around and bites you in the ass. When you think that the past will always and forever remain where it should be... It comes at you from every direction. Like a violent tsunami destroying everything...and everyone in it's path. Can you change what happened? I wish. Can you stop what's going to happen? God! I really hope so.
