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 think what you study and what you believe in has an influence in the way you live.

I don't think that I'm the smartest guy around, so I'm better off to keep my mouth shut as much as I can rather than opening my mouth and proving to people that I don't know what I'm talking about. I'm more of a leader by example than I am a preacher.

I'm not comfortable telling my kids how they should be or how they should think or how they should act or anything else.

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.
