As told to me by an old man I know (Ford Fanatic) about country living . On a Quiet night I can hear a Chevy Rust!

"That barrel is going to win me Class at the US Nationals..." - Anonymous Super Stock racer pointing to a barrel of racing fuel in his trailer - a few hours later he won his class!

"This may be the .01 that I need to win Class at Indy." - another anonymous Super Stock racer after pulling a beaker of some fluid out of the microwave in his trailer. He had the mad scientist look going on for sure!

"Never lift on a dragster." - This was repeated by a buddy of ours after he lost in the semi's of a $5K race. The opponent in the dragster had stalled and never left the line. After watching our bud break out by .003, the dragster driver re-fired and idled down the track for the win. OUCH!

How about the old classic:

"winning isn't everything, it's the only thing!"

Nothing to do with racing, but here goes...."Hotter than a snake's *** in a wagon rut" or "Hotter than 2 mice screwin' in a wool sock"
