I’ve received a few e-mails from people talking about the hurdles or myths they overcame to get into road racing. I know from talking with people (it seems especially over a few beers), many of us have some very interesting stories to tell. I think it would be fun to share some of these with each other. Hopefully it will also show other people interested in starting to race that it is possible and it doesn’t have to be something they merely dream about doing.

I just added a page to my book’s website (www.GoAheadTakeTheWheel.com) titled “Tell Your Story,” which already has one very cool story on it now. I’d like to add a couple of others to it as well. It can be anything from a couple of sentences to a few paragraphs.

If you’d rather just post something here and not have it added to the website, just add a quick note to the bottom of your post and we’ll keep it within it.com. I don’t want to make the web page too long, so please don’t be offended if your story isn’t used on the website.

So, what’s your story?

Hey Zephyr, you mentioned how you'd like to see more about how people like yourself drive the racecar to the track. Let's hear about it (of course it can be after the NASA Championships).
