A random Monday when everyone else is at work, we're tearing up the mountain road, an analog experience of life.
00:00:05.000
We're burning old dinosaurs in combustion engines.
00:00:10.000
Not many people realize this will all be gone soon.
00:00:12.000
You know why I'm not in the mood for driving fast?
00:00:17.000
In fact, I can drive fast as low as anybody here.
00:00:20.000
However, I get 0% more fun at speeds that kill you.
00:00:26.000
With an increased risk of somebody on the road killing me.
00:00:31.000
So if driving at this speed is the same as driving at 400 kilometers an hour.
00:01:28.000
My entire car collection is built on me trying to beat a 765.
00:01:32.000
If I knew the 765 was the best car, I could have saved millions of dollars.
00:01:36.000
I wouldn't have bought the GT3s, the SF90s, all this shit.
00:01:40.000
I keep going, okay the McLaren's good, but something's got me better than the McLaren.
00:01:44.000
And I buy all these cars and at the end it's back to the McLaren.
00:01:47.000
The only thing that will keep up with that is the SF90.
00:01:50.000
If you were to drive the 765 as hard as you could, and I were to drive the SF90 as hard as I could, it'd be close.
00:01:56.000
But it'd be close because the SF is all-wheel drive and in a straight line, I can come out of the corners with all-wheel drive, maybe.
00:02:08.000
So I bought this entire car collection trying to outmatch the McLaren.
00:02:12.000
If I knew this at the beginning, I could have saved millions.
00:02:17.000
Once I had two of those, I should have just stopped.
00:02:31.000
But I do it every single day because otherwise I feel guilty.
00:02:34.000
Because I have a standard for myself, which I must uphold.
00:02:40.000
I just can't stand the fact that if I don't train, I'm not happy.
00:02:43.000
And the only way I can find contentment and peace and serenity throughout the remainder of my day is to complete the thing I do not want to do.
