Checkered Flag Victory

written on a love of racing (nascar mostly)

Author's Note

Drive it in hard
Exit turn 2
Make it stick
God help you

He's coming to the inside
Tap the clutch
Racing is a fight
You know that much

Slam the gas
V8 roars loud
Rumble down the strait
Up front and proud

Last lap
Turn 3
So close
To victory

Lapped car
Goes up in smoke
Late shift
Tranny choke

Fishtales out
A pile up!
Let off
To the inside, duck!

Outta the smoke
Going two-oh-three
The lead car
Checkered flag, victory!
