The thing I've noticed over the years is that the truly fast people are some of the nicest you'll meed. It's the ones that want you to think they're fast that are the jackholes.

Seems to work across the board in pretty much every walk of live: the ones that have done it (whatever 'it' is) are the nicest people you'll meet. The wannabe's are the jackholes
