"My image lends itself a little bit more to the modern fan, sometimes more toward the kids, and I gue..." — Jeff Gordon

In NASCAR, you don't have to be as physically strong as in some other forms of racing. You've just got to be able to endure the heat and endurance of it.

We have to keep our fans watching not just at home on TV but here at the racetrack too. This is where you sell people on the speed and excitement of racing.

In California, especially Northern California, the fans really cheer for me.

You are going to make choices and decisions that sometimes aren't going to always work in your favor and they are going to upset some other people.
