Default Am I normal or do i love performance cars to much?

I was wondering if i have a problem or something my girlfriend thinks i'm weird cause i like performance cars too much.... Whenever I see an awsome performance car like a v8 trans am or a mustang giviner with a nice exhaust sound i get goose bumps all over my body and a weird *** feeling in my stomach i just cant get enough of those performance cars with there back end sliding sideways roaring by me. I even get goose bumps when my friend lets me drive his 1999 gtp that has about 300 hp with the mods he has the feel in the back of my seat gives me so much good feeling it makes me feel weird is this normal or do i have a weird problem god i want more than 205 hp wish i could afford it lol.

There is also nothing like the smell of burning rubber and nitromethane coming from a pro funny car either

You should become a race car driver!!

I like performance cars and all, but I dont get goose bumps all over. I usual try to catch up to it and get better looks at it before it dusts me. lol

You may have to play them twice or so to get rid of the choppyness if it happens to you.

Oh dear god, the rush I get when I see a nice car. I know what you mean. Believe me, I feel the same way all the time. In fact, I get a little too obsessed sometimes. If the car is parked, I usually make a couple passes to get a nice cameraphone pic, or, if it'* something REALLY rare (like the Bugatti EB I saw a few years ago), I stop altogether, cancel all my appointments, and get a nice photoshoot in before the guy comes back
