I like this one, and here's a thought - what do you think about doing it NOT as an acrostic? You say some powerful things here, and I feel the form contrains you rather than compliements the message

(although burned rubbers gives me a couple of mental images... )

with more line breaks and a little word tweaking I think you could really distil this one into a very powerful piece that truly reflects your meaning.  just as an example

surf down the wind   **great line

(in a plunge?)  through the sky

until rushing air breaths me

(into?)  to life

burn rubber, and smoke

that adrenaline high

.... etc

just some thoughts (likely because I'm no good at acrostics!!). do what you like with them!
