Dave Popielarz Quotations

We each got 35-40m laps. After the first 10 laps, we said it was worth the money right there.

The biggest thing you are spending on is pit passes and beer.

Winged women on wheels. Terri has a much better record than I do. When I see her on the track ahead of me, we aren't going to crash each other, we'll help each other. But if she bumps me on the track, she's gone.

I was asked, 'Are you worried about bringing it home?' No, I've got $500 in the thing. If it turns into a smoking heap, I don't care. I know a guy who crashed this Subaru; they put it on top of two trash cans and left it there. You go home, pick up the Thrifty Nickel, find a four-cylinder junker and offer them $300 for the thing. Weld up the trunk and go racing.

They basically gave us a short school and turned us loose. Kyle was fastest. I spun a bunch. But we got 35-40 laps each. After the first 10 laps, we said it was worth the money right there. We've done it a couple of times.
