It's probably 10% luck and 45-45 on the driver and the car. If you have a bad car, you're done.

I definitely want to get more involved in making sure that West Coast racing is healthy and where it needs to be.

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

I had to decide if I wanted to race full time or be an architect. I decided I could always go back to school.

I'm just a normal person.

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

We've definitely been in a few positions where it's come down to the end of the race and we've been able to close the deal, and we've definitely been in position where we've lost a few.
