achievement bring build bunch happiness huge nice people pressure team win
There was a bunch of pressure to win here. I think it's a huge achievement for us and the team and GM. It's nice to bring happiness to the people who build it.
people finals video
Going vegan was a little tougher for me. The final push came from watching Gary Yourofsky's lecture at Georgia Tech in person. The video is now on YouTube. I constantly show it to people interested in learning about why I choose to live the way I do.
believe giving people
I like to encourage people to give locally. It's easy to find and call a local no-kill shelter and see what specific things they need, and believe me, all of them are always in need of something.
behind caution competition gave glad good guy knew lap last mentally needed opened plus points races rear room spencer tire tires today top toughest yellow
I knew right before we went to that last yellow caution that Spencer didn't really have a lot of rear tire left. So I gave him room on the restart so as not to be on top of him and have the other competition right behind me. I opened on the guy behind me, and when I got to 'Spence' his tires were already off a lap or two and I could make my move. Today was one of the toughest races mentally because it was such a good race; plus we needed to get points for the championship lead. I'm really glad we did it, though.
awesome feels finally good win
It was just awesome to win. It finally feels good to get a win after two podium finishes.
ass my-haters kicks
There will always be haters out there, but my haters motivate me to push harder and kick more ass.
sports winning healthy
On the street luge side, you need to have a solid core and balance. A healthy body is a must in that sport if you want to compete for wins, and my diet has certainly enabled me to make the most of myself.
practice long athletic
Good cardio helps in any athletic practice, but in jujitsu, it has been very helpful late in a sparring session where a long roll starts to take its toll on your cardio.
littles gains vegan
I've seen a big gain in cardio since I went vegetarian and even gained a little more going vegan.
months benefits vegetarian
It was not until months after going vegetarian that I started really learning about all of the health benefits.
animal choices littles
The choice to become vegetarian was purely for ethical reasons. Like most meat eaters, I was a little concerned with removing meat from my diet. Also, like most meat eaters, I was blind to the horrible ways animals are treated.
kids eye passion
As a kid, I loved my Matchbox cars, my Big Wheels, and the race cars on TV. When I laid eyes on my first go-kart when I was just five, it gave my desire for making things with wheels go fast a focus. This combined with the fact that I've been incredibly competitive since a young age made for the proper mix of passion and aggression to become a race car driver.
beauty cars favorite traffic
That's the beauty of the Grand-Am Cup. We've got 70 cars out there, and this is one of my favorite tracks. It's about traffic management.
bad breaks bunch entire touch
I didn't touch him the entire time. He just got a bunch of bad breaks in traffic, but I'll take it any day.
