this ol' thing wasn't dragged out on a Toyobaru forum?

"It's not about power. If you can't go fast with 90 horsepower, 900 ain't gonna help ya. I genuinely feel that."
Bob Hall

"To finish first, you must first finish."
(debated, Rick Mears, Brabham, Fangio etc.)
http://forums.autosport.com/topic/15...-first-finish/

"Faster, faster, faster, until the thrill of speed overcomes the fear of death"
Hunter S. Thompson
(I have a shirt of this, love it)

"There are two types of racers, cheaters and losers."
Smokey Yunick

"You don't race cars, you race the rulebook"
Smokey Yunick


Some good ones in here:
http://www.ridelust.com/the-50-great...s-of-all-time/

And I've got to unabashadly steal this from the above link:
"I love this kind of racing, (but) these guys sure change their personalities in race mode. They're like Doberman pinschers with a hand grenade in their mouths."
Boris Said

I haven't been able to find it in years but I love Jeremy Clarkson's opinion that "all racing car driver's opinions are rubbish"

Coincidentally I think Tanner Foust is the weakest component of US TG when I last watched.

"The great fights with your strongest rivals are always the biggest motivation. When you win easily, it's not the same taste." -Valentino Rossi

"Riding a race bike is an art - a thing that you do because you feel something inside." -Valentino Rossi

"If you have everything under control, you're not moving fast enough." -Mario Andretti

"There is a lie that all drivers tell themselves: death is something that happens to other people. And that's how you find the courage to get in the car in the first place. The closer you are to death, the more alive you feel. But more powerful than fear itself is the will to win." -James Hunt
