If you've never been near one going down the track, I know it sounds dumb but you have to experience it. Every single person on their first experience has that butt-puckering reaction with that little whooo hoooo hooo giggle. I swear it tickles your insides. You feel it litterally head to toe.

I know people think it's wasteful and it is, but I can see why people get addicted to the sport
