racing quotes
auto racing has had some very inspirational people, of both great driving skill, and great wisdom. they obviously said many words. share some of these words and who they are by.

they could just be inspirational, they could be stuff that you can learn by. they might just make you wanna win. either way share some

i got the idea when i was looking at a friends facebook, and saw under his profile picture he had a quote from somebody, in his info box. i have an empty one, and i just filled it with one i thought was good.
