Quotes from the news wire:
When we get in the car, when I get my helmet on and the suit, they don’t know who’s in there — they don’t know I’m 90 years old, so, they might think, ‘Hey, here’s some 23-year-old wanting to pass me.’.

NASCAR, they want to make sure — you know, 90 years old, a lot of them are in a wheelchair or pushing carts around and walkers, that kind of thing, they don’t quite understand my abilities, I guess. Since I hadn’t driven for over three years, they sent a guy out here [from Charlotte] to test me. I had to run 50 laps on the track. I borrowed my son’s car to do it in. Then they had to have a letter from my cardiologist to make sure that my ticker was good and so my cardiologist, he put me through the whole thing.

In my old style of racing, I used to be in the front most of the time, from my record, but, you know, at my age and haven’t driven, I don’t feel 90. So, hopefully my right foot feels like I’m about 30 or 40 years old and my left foot won’t work very well, won’t push the brake too much.

I have a very competitive car, bill McAnally owns the car. He owns three other teams. He’s won several championships with different drivers with his teams. My car will be set up just like the other three teams that he has. So, I have no excuse but to run good and hope I end up towards the front.

I started racing at 13. Now my daughter started racing at 13 … does real well in college and school. Actually, the last four years of her high school she did online so she traveled with me. She was in the back seat doing online with three computers going on so she would go around the racetracks to help take care of grandpa.
