<<Air bags? What the hell are you thinking ? If you are racing you are racing>>
I was talking about the car I drive on the street. We were talking about Miata
seats, which I doubt people are putting in their race cars, either.
Frankly, I feel safer on the track than I do driving around on the street among
the meandering behemoths, preoccupied with chatting with their kids, dialing
their phones and fiddling with their navigation systems.

Air bags? What the hell are you thinking ? If you are racing you are racing,
