I don't think you can make the good times last longer. They're good because they're only for that moment when the tracks are still warm, and the sun is just setting. If that's what you're getting at, I agree completely. Sometimes all the elements balance out just right just long enough for you to realize how perfect the moment is. Those are good. You're right too...it's better than just a picture of a time like that. You have to take everything in: the colour, the temperature, the dizziness, and most of all how you took it all in. Anyway, I think it's best not to try to stretch those times out, but to appreciate it all, and save it away, and look forward to the next ones. The next ones will never be the same though... that's what's exciting. The next great experience will have a different smell, or temperature... something will be altered, and most of all, you will take it all in in a different way.
