Wayne Taylor Car Quotations

I think going back this time, we will not be under the pressure we were last fall. We're looking forward to it and having some fun. We really enjoy the fans. They are real sports car enthusiasts and so many good fans and good crowds make it exciting.

We've built a new car for this year's 24 Hour. We have literally the entire team we had here last year - the same people, the same car package, the same drivers - although we've added a fourth driver with Ryan.

The only thing I could think about was the car and the bloody championship. It was a wake-up call, you know. You never think about these kinds of things. If anybody can get it back together, these guys can. One consolation is that the race isn't until 5:30 tomorrow night. So, I think we'll be okay for the race.

I've been doing it for a long enough time that I can get past it. The thing that makes it difficult is we knew we had a car that was capable of winning.

The whole of Bill Riley's group of guys were just unbelievable. The car was so badly damaged that everyone thought we were done for the weekend and if anyone could have got the job done, these guys were it. Max (Angelelli) did his magic like he always does and we couldn't get a better team effort than we did from this group.

Normally in a situation like that you would not get to race and you would lose substantial points. So to not only get the car back in the race but to finish on the podium, it was the ideal situation.

It's quite daunting. The car becomes very light. You think you're going to lose the front end of the car, but you have to keep your foot down. And when you have a car come up behind you, you think you're going to lose the rear of the car. It's a bit terrifying the first couple times.

I'm really, really disappointed. I really thought we had a car to start in sixth position or so. We're starting further back than we had hoped, but we're going to take a look at the data. I'm not sure if it was tires or what, but we'll take a look at it and see where we can improve for tomorrow.

The goal for this race will be the same for every other racing. It doesn't change if we're on the pole or we aren't, we want to be ahead of the No. 01 car. These races go down to the last 20 minutes, so the priority is to bring the car in a good position and give Max a good car so we can do what we have to do at the end.

The fire marshals were there but didn't know where to point the fire extinguishers and they didn't last. The truck came with water and ran out of water. I was running around finding guys with more fire extinguishers. There was just not enough to put the car out.
