I grew up racing off-road trucks. They were on road courses with jumps. I made a name for myself in that style of racing.

The Daytona 500 is a career-winning race. It defines careers for drivers, crew members, crew chiefs and race teams. It has that power.

I don't need to break the speed limit. But if I'm not passing other vehicles on the interstate, I get a little irritated.

I've met a handful of presidents, from Jimmy Carter to Bill Clinton to George Bush to Barack Obama.

I do find it amusing when somebody cuts me off, makes an aggressive move on me in a car. I'm like, 'Do you have any idea what I do for a living? Why?'

Driving will never be away from me - I can't just give it up. It's all I've ever done, and there's something about being in that car.

I lived in Wisconsin for a while, so I keep my eyes on the Packers. I grew up in San Diego, so there's the Chargers, but outside of that, I'm really kind of lame because I don't have a specific team I pull for.
