Learning to knit vs. Learning to race

I asked Paul for the umpteenth time the other day if he wanted me to teach him to knit. His usual "no, thanks" was then followed by, "If you learn to race my car, I'll learn to knit." That's quite the challenge. I'm a little scared to race his car, although have thought about driving it down the track before (going 30 miles an hour, not 130 like he does!). Can you picture me in this?????
