Athletic dreams are squashed at an early age save the very few exceptional talents‚ artistic pursuits deemed unnecessary unless you are the second-coming of Picasso or Shakespeare‚ traveling and seeing this incredible world first hand is to be put off in

I don’t know what it is about racing‚ but I really enjoy going to the track. The combination of all the cars racing‚ the smell of the smoking tires in the burn out lane‚ and the adrenaline that flows through your body as the cars line up just does it for me.

Chris Shaw 11/22/14 5B Theater Production: Tracks One thing I generally enjoyed the way they portrayed most of the characters. The characters had certain aspects to them that were exaggerated‚ and made it humorous but obvious what and who they were trying to portray.
