And a voice that is dark like tinted glass.  
She is fast, thorough and sharp as a tack.

Reluctantly crouched at the starting line  
Engines pumping and thumping in time

:: thump, thump::

The CD player is on the fritz again.

Engines pumping and thumping in time, the green light flashes the flags go up, churning and burning they yearn for the cup.

They deftly manuver and muscle for rank…

OK, I can switch…

Fuel burning fast on an empty tank.

Reckless and wild, they pour through the turns; their prowess is potent and secretly stern.

As they speed through the finish, the flags go down  
The fans get up and they get out of town
