I thought that was just normal behaviour for any adolescent male with car

You raise your right arm as you pull into your driveway, smashing your
knuckles on the roof of the car.
You rev your engine to about 6000 r.p.m. at stoplights so you can beat
that Honda Accord off the line (or is that a Murasama Accord?).
You seriously consider going over the double yellow to get the correct
line through the downhill-uphill S-turn near your house (that looks
tantalizingly like Eau Rouge).

I know I've been playing GPL too much because the other night I had a
dream about Jim Clark coming back from the dead to race Graham Hill in
what looked like a combination of my old neighborhood in Torrance,
California (near the Riviera Village) and Monaco. They weren't racing
Lotus 49s. They were racing those little Peugeot's (I think) that look
like toy cars! After the race, I had a nice conversation with him while
sitting on a park bench. A very nice chap.

You definitely know you have been racing way too much GPL when you watch the
replay of your Anglo American Gurney Eagle go Sliding along the top of the
rail within dare I say scant inches of the crowd at the Ring Thinking you've
just pulled off a difficult skateboard manuver without even trying....
When you go out in roughly the same area, and do a laterall tumble 10 times
out in the cow pasture, and land upright, and you then watch the replay over
and over again! (Look ma, no wheels!)
When you wipe out in the same section of the Ring (The Bergwick section) as
Lauda did...
When you are trying to do that crazy stunt that will launch you into the bay
at Monaco! (A la Alberto Ascari 1956)....
When you go airborne near Abbey at Silverstone and still land upright!
Need I say More???

A new found GPL ***!
Mr. Gumby: I would like to see John the Baptist doing an imitation of race
car driver Graham Hill! (With regards to Monty Python!)
Your wife is looking at you funny....
The road i live off of is a 3.2 mile loop where u would be hitting speeds like
at Spa. Theres even a 90 degree turn that I (not others too much GPL in my
system) take at 35 MPH.
