Twenty years ago I was at Daytona and we qualified on the front row and somebody told me that it was because of nitrous oxide. I didnt even know what it was. I got called into the trailer because I was telling people about the nitrous oxide and I didnt even know it was illegal. They told me that when they drop the green flag, my driver better be running dead last by the time we got to turn three on the first lap. I appreciate you guys coming to see what we've got going on this year and I'm looking forward to it. I think the Car of Tomorrow is a bunch of crap, but that's just my opinion. We've come a long way in my 20 years of racing. A lot of people didn't think me and Chip working together would last for three weeks, but we've proven them wrong.

In racing you've got to be pretty, and some of these guys you can't dress 'em up, Sponcers want someone that can juke and jive. He has to go to into the boardroom and talk to the people. There are a lot of drivers out there today, their career is pretty much history because they have no marketability. You can't make 'em pretty. You can't drink 'em pretty, either. The difference between a 1 and a 10 is a light switch away, well that doesn't work with a race car driver. You can't turn the lights out.
