"The Kiss of Death Mistake"

You replay the conversation at 2 a.m. She texted back fast yesterday. Today, nothing. Was that smile friendly or flirty? What did the shoulder touch mean?

Every hour you spend decoding her signals drains your confidence and hands her the controls. Women can sense that insecurity from across the room — and it repels them.

One of the "22 Rules" kills the obsession on the spot: assume she likes you, and act accordingly. Sounds too simple. Works anyway.

Her interest tends to rise to meet your expectations. Psychologists call it a self-fulfilling prophecy.

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

How can you watch a bunch of cars drive in a circle for 24 hours? Id rather watch golf.

One thing i like about 24 hours of Daytona is they have drivers from IRL, Champ Car & Nascar all competing. I think it would be cool if they had some sprint car & F1 guys in there as well. I am amazed how close the finishes are after 24 hours of racing.

Yessssss...I would LOVE to see Alonso running in the 24 hours. He would kick everyones arses. I hated to see Rusty Wallace's car having problems. However, that's what happens when Danica Patrick is your team mate muhahahahahahaha. Looks like Dixon/Wheldon/Mears is going to win aslong as they don't have any problems. I believe this will be the first time in history of the rolex that no sports car racer i.e. Weaver, etc has won. Because Dixon/Wheldon are from IRL and Mears, of course, is from Nascar. I could be wrong I don't know.
 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

Yes, this is the misconception of NASCAR fans which give other hardcore racing fans a bad name :) Most NASCAR fans only know one car number which is 8. And that's all fine and good, but I know a couple of people around here like myself in my area that watch other racing besides NASCAR. If you ask the typical NASCAR fan what wedge does to a car, or raising the track bar they will probably give you a blank look then following that question they will say "WHere's ol' Junior at." It's sad to see but it is the truth. :(

F1 drivers have been in this race (24 hours of Daytona) before. Not driving F1 cars of course, but Audi's & Porsches. I think your getting this race & the Daytona 500 mixed up..
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

No i know what race yall are talking about. The almost oval one for 24 hours. The track only has a couple of curves here and there and then a couple of sharp turns. To F1 drivers tracks like that one are nothing, not to mention most f1 drivers are european, I can see a couple of them coming to race but to most of them a race by nascar is probably a big laugh.

Yeah, I don't see f1 drivers doing a Nascar race. However I remember awhile back Jeff Gordon and Juan Pablo Montoya switched rides for a day....lucky mofo...(Gordon)
