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.

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.

I definitely get pumped up when I hear a crowd cheering for me.

Being up front is the only place to be.

I feel like I'm getting to be a better driver every day.

I want to force the other drivers to find a way past me.

In our business, just getting to 40 means something...that's why I think sometimes you have to just live in the moment. You have to enjoy life to its fullest.
