Robin Braig Quotations

NASCAR was born right here in Daytona and they can't ever take that away from us, and we'll continue to promote it as a world center of racing.

NASCAR is not the same sport it was 10 years ago. It has evolved, and with it, so has its fan base.

We are discouraged, we are disappointed. But we have to be, like any other great champion in this sport that would step up . . . to congratulate our friends in Charlotte. They certainly put their best foot forward. They won fair and square.

We are absolutely excited about making the final three. As the world center of racing, we think we're still the leader.

We think it's the best plan. What better time to show it off than during the sport's most important event, the Daytona 500?

The Corvette Z06 already is a performance legend and the fans will enjoy seeing it lead their favorite drivers around Daytona's famous tri-oval. It promises to be a great race, and kicking it off with a Corvette at the head of the pack is the best way to start.

Clearly, we're in a dogfight for this coveted facility.

Clearly, as a track promoter, we had a lot to benefit by this facility being built on track property. It would've been a great show for us, but we'll rebound from it.
