It's not too hard to be passed by cars when in slow flight. What was insulting

Lowes) in a C-182 and being passed by the race cars... and I was running at 75%

hah One day, I got very fascinated watching someone turning
practice laps at Road Atlanta. I don't know what he was driving -- I
was watching from 3500 AGL -- but he was going nearly twice as fast as
I was in the Citabria (7KCAB), and that was a remarkable thing to
consider.
