Long practise in driving a racing car at a hundred miles an hour or so gives first-class training in control and judging distances at high speed and helps tremendously in getting motor sense, which is rather the feel of your engine than the sound of it, a thing you get through your bones and nerves rather than simply your ears. Eddie Rickenbacker

J. D. Vance

I think as men begin to see things that address them, they will feel that they can relate.
