If i had to choose a voice over for my announcer it would have to be Howard Cosell announcing the speeding cars position in their run away pack, they seem to be so serious.

That's why I dig the open highways and the trucks at 60. I keep back and over a bit to one side so they see me. I figure the negative aero effect is offset by not being an A-whole. karma points count in my book.
