Depends on how and where you drive.

When I lived further out from the city, basically in the country, the backroads I would take to certain places are very much more reminiscent of Nurburg than drag racing. I wouldn't just mosey around either. Push the car hard sometimes...much more fun than some stupid stop light drag.
