Ok, I admit it, I was never into NASCAR, and I still do not go to events or regularly watch races on television. Its neat though, I love the cars. I bought some NASCAR trading cards and a few books that someday I may read and learn more about NASCAR. That said, one day it occurred to me that I needed a team to support. I chose Red Bull Racing team. I looked at all the racers and one jumped out at me on the list of racers. Scott Speed driving then car 82. I am not sure yet the reason, but Scott no longer races with Red Bull. But that said, I think it is Red Bull I was after. I have affixed a number 83 Brian Vickers sticker to my right lower corner of my rear window on my vehicle. I have actually decked out my ride to have a number of stickers including sports teams, my fraternity and my college. It actually looks like a NASCAR vehicle at some proportion (though that was not my intent). I meerly wanted to add to the culture by exciting people who may pass by with an interesting visual display. Its clearly not abhorrent. But once in a while curious onlookers will inquire as to who might do such a thing. When they see me the driver, they are greeted with an older fellow in his late 30s with a large beard. Probably a surprise I think. Anyhow, I'm not an attention seeker, but I wanted to be different. And my near 15 year old vehicle is nothing to consider a work of art, right? Well now its a canvas. And I am the painter.
