I'm A Good Blend Of Both My

No Matter How Good You Are, How Brave You Are Or Anything, It Comes Down To That Car So Many Times. Not Every Time, But So Many Times.

My First Indy 500 Was One Of My High Points. I Ended Up Qualifying Fourth And I Finished Fourth. I Had A Win In Japan A Few Years Later, And Then Qualifying For Daytona Was Great As Well.

On Memorial Day, I Was Out Floating On Lake Norman And Came Across Denny Hamlin. We Struck Up A Conversation, And One Of The First Things We Were Talking About Was How Much It Helped Him When He Started Racing The Cup Car And How Much It Helped His Nationwide Program.

The Last Time I Was Pulled Over Was In 2005. I Was Going 55 In A 35 Mile Per Hour Zone - Which I Don't Understand Because You Can Barely Even Idle At 35 Miles Per Hour. Anyway, I Was Ordered To Go To Traffic School. It Was An 8-hour Class And Really Painful.

Being A Girl, My Parents Could Have Discouraged Me From Racing ... But My Family Has Such A Passion And So Much Confidence In Me, And That Goes A Long Way.
