I just feel rejuvenated in such a big way because of these race cars I get to drive.

I think we have gotten through those brain dead moments on both our parts. Now we just love to race one another hard and clean.

I've been racing a long time, and I realize you go through good streaks and bad streaks.

No matter what happens, I'll always say that I've had a wonderful life.

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.

So much of my life is spent just focused on driving race cars.

When you've got the Daytona 500 out there at stake and everything riding on the line, guys go for it, and the guys that go for it are the ones that are either going to win or they're going to wreck.
