The business model of racing is not a pretty one.
I think perception is important.
So much of my life is spent just focused on driving race cars.
I'm not a fighter, trust me. But I am someone who can get angry. I have a temper at times. Sometimes it gets the best of you no matter how you manage it.
I'm just another link in the chain.
I want to race as long as I'm having fun, it's competitive and healthy, and who knows when that, you know, date comes when that's not happening anymore.
You're still going to see accidents, you always will. Especially towards the closing laps of a race.
You know, sometimes guys work with other guys because they're buddies off the track, not necessarily because they're buddies on the track. Sometimes you've got that going against you or for you.
My image lends itself a little bit more to the modern fan, sometimes more toward the kids, and I guess more toward the wine drinkers... I mean, I have my own wine, and fans love to pull for people they relate to.
Funds raised create hope for kids with cancer. Research is our top priority for discovering a cure.
I think driving in New York is a great experience. A lot more racing techniques go into it than anyplace else I've ever driven. There basically are no lanes.
My career in racing started at a very young age in California.
In California, especially Northern California, the fans really cheer for me.
As fast as we're going these days, especially because of the aerodynamics, we're all concerned about abusing tires. It's so fast that you're afraid of what you're going to do to the tires.
I just feel rejuvenated in such a big way because of these race cars I get to drive.
Ever since I've been racing, I've always been the young guy.
When you're in a race car, you're going through so many different emotions throughout that race.
I don't feel like I've really changed. Maybe I have let people see more of me than in the past.
I definitely get pumped up when I hear a crowd cheering for me.
I don't like to get beat in anything!
I've been racing a long time, and I realize you go through good streaks and bad streaks.
I got on a plane. I remember when I got on the plane, the talk was, you know, they're checking Dale out, that it's more than what it looked like, but I still didn't think it would be anything more than maybe some injuries. Then I landed at home and my phone just lit up. I started getting those messages. I mean, I was blown away. I couldn't believe it. I was just in shock.
I think we have gotten through those brain dead moments on both our parts. Now we just love to race one another hard and clean.
