“[Some of the best days for Dale Earnhardt, Jr. (No. 8 Budweiser Chevrolet) have come at Texas Motor Speedway, with] Little E ... It has turned into quite a fascinating track to drive on. I think the fans enjoy having us here. They buy a lot of tickets every time we come around. They are really enthusiastic. That was one of the first things I noticed when I raced here as a rookie, how much more excited they were. It is one of the better tracks on the circuit for me and I really enjoy coming here.”

“Obviously, Wrigley Field is similar to the Indianapolis Motor Speedway in that it has that same mystique to it, ... I don't follow baseball too much, but I know how cool that stadium is and the history and heritage behind it.”
Dan Wheldon
“The improved American highway system isolated the American-in-transit. On his speedway he had no contact with the towns which he by-passed. If he stopped for food or gas, he was served no local fare or local fuel, but had one of Howard Johnson's nationally branded ice cream flavors, and so many gallons of Exxon. This vast ocean of superhighways was nearly as free of culture as the sea traversed by the Mayflower Pilgrims.”

“Our company has announced it is going to make a significant capital expense investment at Las Vegas Motor Speedway, but on the specifics of those projects I'm not ready to comment.”
Chris Powell
“This is a privately owned bridge by Lowe's Motor Speedway. They are responsible for maintenance and any inspection that would be done to the bridge.”

“I've never even seen Hickory Motor Speedway. We are going to try to get up there and test Thursday, and then participate in the open test on Friday. I am really serious about this race because if I run well, I believe it can be a boost for my career.”
Tim Russell
“It's large coming back here to drive as a champion although I was at the Speedway as a spectator for the Formula One race [in June]. This is the best track in the world, bar none and, as the season is winding down, there's not much chance to get into the car so I like that,”
