Is it a normal phase? Yes, I've been there. I'm only 20 so it wasn't
too long ago. Then I disovered autox. It taught me REAL driving skills in a relatively SAFE environment. Now, I still speed a little (who doesn't? gotta love a good on/off ramp <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='
