I don't like to get beat in anything!
I want to race as long as I'm having fun, it's competitive and healthy, and who knows when that, you know, date comes when that's not happening anymore.
I'm just another link in the chain.
I think driving in New York is a great experience. A lot more racing techniques go into it than anyplace else I've ever driven. There basically are no lanes.
The business model of racing is not a pretty one.
My image lends itself a little bit more to the modern fan, sometimes more toward the kids, and I guess more toward the wine drinkers... I mean, I have my own wine, and fans love to pull for people they relate to.
Racing is not what I like to do; it's winning.
Funds raised create hope for kids with cancer. Research is our top priority for discovering a cure.
I'm not a fighter, trust me. But I am someone who can get angry. I have a temper at times. Sometimes it gets the best of you no matter how you manage it.
Ever since I've been racing, I've always been the young guy.
I've been racing a long time, and I realize you go through good streaks and bad streaks.
So much of my life is spent just focused on driving race cars.
I definitely get pumped up when I hear a crowd cheering for me.
Yeah, I've made some mistakes. Every guy makes mistakes.
