“It kind of sucks when you lose a dog; you don't realize how attached to them you are until they are gone.”

“When you have fast cars and bad luck, it's a lot easier to handle than having slow cars and bad luck.”

“They could find something wrong with every car if they took it apart for a whole day at the R&D center.”

“I'm going to quit when I feel like I'm not having fun anymore or I'm not competitive.”

“People don't like the same thing. You have to keep their attention.”

“I think, as competitors, you always wanted to try and gain an advantage, and you have that opportunity to go out and grab those bonus points and gain as many as you can throughout the year.”

“We don't ever want to lose a deal. So we treat a $5,000 sponsor like a $5 million sponsor, both because it's the right thing to do and because we've grown a lot of our sponsors from thousands to millions.”

“Winning takes you to that next level of being a bigger star.”

“When you look at how the sports world is changing, you have to figure out how to become different than everyone else.”

“It's really not about what you have. It's about how you're able to enjoy life in general.”

“My favorite part of any military feature, aside from the people themselves, is how clean and organized everything is. I like things clean and organized, and they don't get any cleaner or more organized than they are in any branch of the military.”

“For some reason, the busier I am at the track, the better I tend to race. I think it's because I don't have to deal with all the distractions outside the car that can get me in trouble at times.”

“I've been on the side of it where you have bad luck and slow cars.”

“Just in a professional world, sometimes a phone call is definitely more meaningful than a text.”

“I will not back down to anyone.”

“One thing I can't stand is when people - not our team, but other people - don't respond. Everybody can email, everybody can text... using an email auto-response is not the world we live in.”

“How many times have you had a crappy Super Bowl, but everybody goes to the Super Bowl because it's an event.”

“I'm one of those guys that gets bored with things pretty fast, so I've got to keep it mixed up.”

“We have to take the good with the bad.”

“If you follow the same path as everyone else you're just going to be like everyone else.”
