I go to bed is around 11, and I do that for every race. I get good sleep. I don't lie awake for any race. That's my routine.

I had no problems staying motivated because things that were happening were things I looked forward to.

You're safer in the race car than you are in cars going to and from the track.

If you're so afraid of failure, you will never succeed. You have to take chances.

Speed takes a little bit of getting used to, but rules have to be followed. At any speed, the more you run, the more you get used to it.

For every negative, there's a positive. It's in everything. How you deal with life, outlook, how much energy you put into achieving something. That's why I detest entitlement. Anything that's worthwhile is going to call for some sacrifice. Nothing worthwhile will come to you without a price. People think in sports, you have different rules. You really don't. It's whatever motivates you.

It takes a lifetime to build tradition.
