Background and History: Ferrari is evidence to Enzo Ferrari’s glorious and humongous madness: sports cars legend. Enzo, a notoriously autocratic icon, made the dream of ideal sports car come true. The cars from Maranello have long been the exotics to love and drive pedigreed pieces of rolling art (Smith, 2009). Enzo was born in 1898 in Modena. His father owned a small metal engineering company which built bridges and roofs.
He viewed a track that was beyond the days of dirt racing and whisky running. His paved dream would attract not only racers but also the fans that adored them. So he and he alone set out to create NASCAR’s first Super Speedway. Characters of “Thunder in Carolina”, Mitch Cooper and Les York clearly portray how stock car racing was much more than a sport. The two men devote all of their time to racing, and base their lives around the sport.
Sports athletes are unique people. Once they reach the pinnacle of success and are known to the world, they symbolize and represent the communities in which they are from. Pierre Garcon was an underrated player for the Indianapolis Colts. And in 2010 when he recorded an NFL record eleven receptions in the conference championship game, he gave some happiness back to the Haitians who had just lost their world to the tragic earthquake. Garcon is a hero, not because of the way he performed when his country was in turmoil, but because of the way he was able to go out, strap on his pads, and proudly represent his people despite being affected emotionally by the earthquake.
His father was even known to have invented special drills for his son to work on specific hockey skills. He also always had a positive outlook on life constantly telling Gretzky that there was nothing that he couldn’t achieve if he set his mind to it (Pearl 389-390). Gretzky’s father is known to have also told him not to let anything stand in his way, and that if you want something bad enough it can be achieved by hard work and dedication. Gretzky responded to all of this positivity by working extremely hard throughout his youth hockey until turning pro at age 17 when he was drafted by the Edmonton Oilers NHL franchise in 1979 (“Wayne Gretzky”). Although Gretzky’s father was a major role in his hockey success and achievements, much of his respect, humbleness,
Owens became the hero of America during those hostile times, and proved that no matter the race, superiority was in the minds of many. Jesse Owens played a big role in abandoning the racial boundaries in American history and especially doing so in Hitler’s own homeland. His impact can be seen through his early athletic years, his achievement in the 1936 Olympics, and his life after being an Olympian hero. As a young athlete in high school and college Jesse Owens created a name for himself setting multiple records. He went to East Technical High School in Danville, Alabama where he set himself up for success to become one of the top track and field stars at the school.

The only thing that sucked about it was the fact that after I got a job bartending I got an apartment, and then somewhere down the line I bought a new car, which pushed me to have to work so much more to pay my bills and maintain the things I needed in life. The worst part about being a single parent raising a child is because I work so much during the week and my job is an hour and a half away and I get off at 4 or 5am every day, I only get to see my son on the weekends while my mom
Jennifer Beltran Professor Hawley English 101 28 October 2013 Hybrid vs. Fossil Fueled Vehicles As I drove to work today the gas light came on, I pulled over to the gas station to fill up my gas tank. Normally my boyfriend is the one in charge of filling up the car. When I finally arrived at Quick Shop and saw how much gas cost, I was shocked. Although gas prices have been going down since the government shutdown, I was extremely hesitant in filling the gas tank all the way. Last month the average gas price was $3.54 per gallon, today gas is averaging at $3.04.
I probably filled out about fifty applications. I finally realized that it was pretty hard for a sixteen year old with no experience to get a job. I really wanted a car, so I called and called several places weekly and finally landed a job. It took a while, but I eventually saved up enough to buy a car. It was a struggle for me to go to school and then straight to work most of the week.
