People are losing personal touch with others, myself included as I keep connected on the internet and other technological stuff. Keep up the good work!

You comment about the race to each other. It can be sort of like your own personal news ticker — bringing headlines from you friends. Some are crap, but some are interesting. A lot of things in racing come to my attention via twitter, including this very entry on this very blog. I saw the link on Twitter and decided to check it out.

Having drivers with awesome personalities is part of why I love the IRL!!! I wish more drivers were on Twitter – although yes, the majority of them who Twitter are kind of lame…

Is that an official admission? :)

I do occasionally tweet a commentary during a race with a friend. It’s a step away from laying across beds chatting on our princess phones like 15-year-olds. A little bit, anyway.

Other than that, I think it’s basically worthless.
