"dont talk about it, be about it"

"I've got dozens of friends

That is as long as I'm buyin'"


Thanks you STYX

Here's a couple:

My Dad used to say (on life):

"We're not here for a LONG time...We're here for a GOOD time."

On Money:

"Money goes where its wanted....and stays where its well treated."

sh#t happens its what you do next that counts.

"I've been younger a whole lot longer than you have been older"

In Billy Gibbon's words - “As Lightnin’ Hopkins said, ‘The rubber on a wheel is faster than the rubber on a heel.’ Instant realization that cars and guitars was where it was at. But what made ‘em faster than you and me? Hot-roddin’.”

Why not go out on a limb? - Isn't that where the fruit is?

Doing nothing is very hard to do ... you never know when you're finished.

Never track a car you can't afford to walk away from !

Don't forget the 5 P's , Prior Planning Prevents Poor Performance......

You gotta break some eggs if you want to make an omlet!

(how old is that?:lol: )

It is not enough to be alive , one must live!, Zora Arkus Duntov used that. I think.

If it don't fit, make it.

You can't fix stupid.

No Brains , No Problems.

"Bite off more than you can chew and chew like hell!"

One of my favorites lately (while working and going to school full time :lol:)

"Don't let your alligator mouth overload your hummingbird a$$"

Friend talking about a rival that spun off track,

"His Ray Charles driving skills couldn't keep up with his Mario Andretti pedals."

Another real motivator you hear often is, "Anything worth doing is worth doing well."

or:
"If it weren't for bad luck, I'd have no luck at all."

And for the "motivational posters" posted...These two are my favorites.

How much is a bag is of groceries ? - It depend on what you put in the bag that makes it expensive....

My dad always would tell me:
"if you don't have time to do it right the first time, you don't have time to do it over!"

I'm glad I'm not an Engineer - then I'd have to follow the rules...

Got a sentence on the inside of my workplace door:

"Love it, or leave it The Hell alone"


Helps me when I'm starting to think I'd rather be somewhere else :)

Talk is cheap,performance is expensive.Also, Just because it fits does't mean it looks good.

Ain't that the down right truth!!!

"Life is a RIP OFF if you EXPECT to get what you want" Joe Montana

"What you are willing to do will determine where you are willing to go"

"When working to excell at something, it is not enough to do what is expected"

" Imposible" is just the ultimate level of difficulty
in 1950 people thought it was impossible to get to the moon, 19 years later they did

"think BIG" see what is possible and MAKE it happen.

"Clear your mind of CAN'T"

I guess it can be summed up by comparing a hammer to a nail gun. Sure you'll vent more frustration with a hammer, but you'll probably get more accomplished with the nail gun.

The harder I work, the luckier I get.

If your not living life on the edge, you are taking up space.

Its not the fall that kills you, it the sudden stop at the end.

Life is a Virgin because a Bitch is to easy!

Money does NOT buy intelligence but does bring out the idiots and gold diggers!

Thoughts for Racing:
If you don't break then you are not pushing it hard enough; If you break then you didn't build it strong enough.

You have to lose control every once in a while to find out the limits of your ability!

Roosevelt's 'Man in the Arena' gets me every time. It's posted in many race transporters...

"It is not the critic who counts: not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself for a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."

Better to be quiet, and thought a fool, than to open your mouth and erase all doubt.

"The true measure of a man is how he treats someone who can do him absolutely no good"
