This is a good weekend for a lot of people to race. They realize ours is a fast track, so local teams are putting it on their schedule. Just a couple of years ago, it was the leftover teams from spring break; now it us pretty much everyone's 'A' team.

We've had everything from concerts to circuses and a lot of other events there. It is not just horse people versus motorcycle people.

[The race of the weekend is Saturday's professional 4X100-meter relay, which an American team has won for the last five years.] It was really exciting as a college athlete watching the red, white and blue run the last day, ... Everybody comes on the last day to watch the professionals, whether it's raining or not.

I took a week off last weekend. This weekend I need to make sure I'm back in race shape and back to my most competitive level.

That was incredible. I'd quit just to come race with you guys every weekend. I've raced a motorcycle, and that was unbelievable. I love motorcycles, but this is amazing. These guys are incredible. When I got in the car, I couldn't really fit. They wanted me to get back more, and I couldn't get my shoulders back, but around the second turn, I was back in the headrest. That was amazing. I don't know how these guys can do 500 miles, 240 miles an hour, in and out of traffic, wheel-to-wheel and against the walls in front of 400,000 people. It blows my mind.
