About Terence Dove

“Racing is Life. Anything Before or After is Just Waiting”

So Steve McQueen says, and it’s a banger of a quote.  It’s like ‘ooooh yes, I’m a racing driver and normal daily life is for the dweebs’.

I love it, because it encapsulates the superiority and snobbishness of us racing types.   We want danger, speed and to live on the edge of disaster. Money, safety and everyday human concerns mean nothing at the race track, that stuff is for the normal lot!
