What is your OTHER passion?

Now we are all passionate about quality audio, right? But next to audio, what interests us? (No sexual exploits, please, I'm getting old).
Mine is motorsports...especially CART, F1, and just about anything with a motor that hums! Rebuilding a 2-stroke is a joy that I crave. Used to race karts...thereby comes my moniker. Favourite drivers: Paul Tracy, Scott Pruett, Mario, Montoya, and the oldies such as Malcolm Cambell, Rudy Carraciola (German), and many others who lived such romantic racing lives. My one desire is to go to Indy...got to wait for the boy to gain a few years.

in the spring and summer, i greatly enjoy flower gardening, emanating my english roots. i plant 25-30 large terra cotta pots with shade-loving flowers and tend to 5 perrenial beds. year round, especially when traveling, i enjoy visiting art galleries; i'm drawn especially to 19th century pre-impressionists and 20th century furniture and glass. i also love to visit new italian and american restaurants, savoring the food and wine. -kelly

J_thunders...thundering on as usual, I suppose...Yes, I did peek frequently @ the "Les Quatre-Vingt" over the weekend. The brightness of the nightlights coming over the hill was dazzling! I did think that one of the team managers in an interview sounded "slurry"...too much French wine? And glad to see my friend Ron Fellows finish 8th overall. I am reduced to occasional rent-a-racer kart events with some snowmobilers. One of my favourite listens is track 85 on the Stereophile Test CD...Indy practice! Ok, ok, the rest of you, I know that this is not supposed to be the F1Racing.com site!
