Cale Yarborough quotes about

I knew Childress was going to help me because my crew told me on the radio. I really appreciate what Richard did, but that is typical of people in this sport.
Driving a race car is like dancing with a chain saw.
If they hadn't been there, we'd probably still be fighting,
If you don't take a chance-you won't have a chance.
