What's this?

The imagery.

Some of the names of the races back in the day and such like the Rebel 500.
Very Southern sport until Jeff Gordon(Days of Thunder came true, ironically
enough) showed up in 1992 and expanded the boundaries of people paying
attention. I use quotes as a form of revisionist observation. You know me,
don't erase the history and such but try to use it in today terms as a complex
observation. I have plenty of behavior in my past that I would like to erase
as if it never happened. Good thing is that I learned from it, straightened my
ass up(mostly) and am very content with the life I currently have. Also not
ashamed or guilty of being born white. I never will be made to feel that way. I
have always tried to show common respect to anyone I meet and go from
there on further interaction.
