Lodi Dropzone 2010

They installed meter lights on the freeway ramp in the town I live in.  At first it bugged me because It was throwing off my onramp mojo. I had finally figured out what the perfect speed was that wouldn’t cause me to over correct and end up in the fast lane going the wrong way.
Today I got on the ramp and I’m not sure if it was the song on the radio, the mood I was in or just because it was Thursday, but as I pulled up behind the car I looked over and saw the meter lights….green….red….green….red….and all the sudden I was John Force inching my way to the starting line.

I took off from the line, passed the Toyota Corolla…my hair flying in the wind and laughing with victory.   Then the traffic came to a dead stop and I was back in my Honda Civic on my way to work.
For 3 minutes every morning…I am a NHRA drag racer and that is enough for me.
