When I'm not at work, I usually spend my free time working on my track car, either getting it ready for track events or just fixing whatever broke that week. Despite the fact that my car consumes the most of my time, I make every effort to maintain my living and working environments tidy. While also being able to go out with friends, socialize, and get ready for work the next morning.
