I've made a lot of friends over the years through racing, but we weren't necessarily teammates.

I didn't run for office to make friends.

I've always had a fascination with cars and racing, not that I've ever competed.

People wanted to be friends with me for not the right reasons. They'd introduce me to somebody else as the Olympian or the swimmer. I didn't want to stand out. I wanted to blend in.

Racing is a very selfish, self-centred, self-glorifying thing. My wife's life for 14 years was centered around me. It was all about me. It was all for my ego.

I've never been to a race car race before.

It might sound stupid, but I don't enter a race to win - I enter a race because I love racing.

I enjoy racing because I want to do it. No one's forcing me.

When I was a kid, I was a pretty good runner, and there was nothing like winning a race.
