"Well, at that Air Force Base, I think it's closed now, but there were a number of people who fly... the fast planes, jets," my mom says. "I dated a couple of them, so I knew the base pretty well, and they would close one of the runways, and the other one, the pilots would drive their sports cars on it, and that's where I learned to drive fast."
I have a huge smile on my face as I ask, "Is that where you learned how to race?"
"Drive fast, downshift, put the car into a skid, all of that," she says, obviously enjoying herself.
