I think driving in New York is a great experience. A lot more racing techniques go into it than anyplace else I’ve ever driven. There basically are no lanes. – Jeff Gordon
When you’re in a race car, you’re going through so many different emotions throughout that race. – Jeff Gordon
You may be leading, then you might be at the back of the pack trying to work your way up. It’s just a constant reminder not to give up, and to know that God, in my mind, is really in control. – Jeff Gordon
I think fear is what keeps us from going over the edge. I mean, as a race car driver, I don’t think what makes a good race car driver is a fearless person. I think it’s somebody that is comfortable being behind the wheel of something that’s somewhat out of control. – Jeff Gordon
You are going to make choices and decisions that sometimes aren’t going to always work in your favor and they are going to upset some other people. – Jeff Gordon

As I get older, my appreciation for wine has just increased. I fell in love with wine through my travels, but knowing what the wine country is all about definitely makes it my own. – Jeff Gordon
My image lends itself a little bit more to the modern fan, sometimes more toward the kids, and I guess more toward the wine drinkers… I mean, I have my own wine, and fans love to pull for people they relate to. – Jeff Gordon
