Anyone who knows anything about me should know by now I am certainly not exactly a good politician. I am also willing to admit to you now that I never went to any classes that had anything to do political science.

When you're able to dominate and just kick everyone's butt and just wipe them out, I think that's when you feel the greatest, when you put it all together.

It feels awesome to outrun anybody, but to outrun your older brother always feels good.

Anytime you come to a short track you want to see a great race.

Yeah, I mean, you always work hard, and certainly there's opportunities to do some bold moves, and sometimes they pay off for you and sometimes they don't.

Sometimes people forget just how closely MWR and JGR work together.

For me I'm a NASCAR driver, and I want to be able to win NASCAR championships.

I'll tell you what, this is a humbling sport.

I had a great teacher in my brother and my dad, and to be able to follow Kurt's footsteps has helped out a whole bunch.

I try to eat healthy a little bit.

Once you're a NASCAR champion, you're kind of in another elite division instead of just being a competitor or a race winner.

Having a cellphone in your pocket, you can get anything you want anytime you want it. Right then and there, boom, you have it.

I don't watch much golf.

For me, I love football.

My favorite was Jeff Gordon. I just followed him growing up because I started watching racing when he came on the scene.

My first paycheck came from HobbyTown USA in Las Vegas. They had like planes and trains and RC cars, things like that.

I'm a big Eminem fan, so I like listening to him. My wife doesn't, though.

I think my reputation is pretty fair among the drivers. The drivers know what they get when they see me or talk to me - if they get the chance to talk to me, because some of them I just don't talk to because I don't like them, so they should know.

I like good Mexican food, and there's not a lot of that around North Carolina.

I don't necessarily ever put a number on how many we can win in a season.

I hate that you get beat up so much about an accomplishment, but I guess that's part of life. Haters gonna hate.

I don't know why my success has been greater in XFINITY cars than it has been in Cup cars. It's the exact opposite for Jimmie Johnson.

My dream car is a Saleen S7. It's made by Saleen in California; it's basically America's Ferrari.

There's no better benefit than being out on the racetrack, learning what's going on with the track and the tire and all that stuff. To me, that's a big influence.
