Seriously, I'll give a slightly different perspective:

I find that I lose time while racing because I get distracted with the fun (and beauty) of soaring, and do not keep focused on going fast. I have to consciously force myself to "get back in the race" at times. Usually a problem if alone; being around other gliders usually results in my fangs coming out...cuz now the high is in catching up and passing the guy in front...
