My Zen Master tells me that the reason I enjoy car racing is that the danger in that action requires 100% of my focus and attention in the present moment. That "thought" is then an obstacle and for the most part inactive... That is the liberated state of Zen which I am able to experience for brief moments. A "taste" of how a Zen Master experiences life constantly.

haha :tongue: hey man I didn't know I was practicing Zen when racing. In that state where you don't think yet are 100% focused, when you seem to do everything right in the "zone", that is Zen. Something I am sure Senna experienced quite a bit of.
 
Zen and the Art of NSX Maintenance.

The more I become one with my NSX, the more I notice that my lips don't match the words I speak. And I use the words "Kung Fu" a lot in conversation.
 
That is why my license plate reads "ZENMSTR" because I feel like a Zen Master while driving it.
