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 grew up on two wheels in the dirt.

I really enjoy the football season.

There is no other way to start the season than to win the Daytona 500.

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?'

I've always wanted to get involved with designing a video game.

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