Your faith shapes the kind of person that you are.

My fans freak out and think I'm never going to race again. And I don't want them to do that because I want them to be there to pull for me in the truck series next year.

I'm far from perfect but I have managed to earn a good deal of respect by trying to implement the kinds of things you learn about.

Kids pick up and absorb a lot more than you think they do. I try to do what I think is right, and I try to lead by example.

I'm not always successful. But I try to treat the people the way I want to be treated. I really try to keep that in mind, but it doesn't always work.

Hopefully, the drivers will be able to race without running over one another. Anything with a heritage like this racetrack, I would not have messed with it. I would have saved my money.

Obviously you can look at things however you choose to and I'm not proud of some people in sports, but I don't really look at it as my calling to be out there setting an example. I just try to treat people the way the I want to be treated - with respect and some dignity.
