You know, it's always good to have seen a track before, just to kind of know where the little bumps are here and there, and just the general feel for the size.

The mistake I really learned from was in 2005, leading the Indianapolis 500. I had a decision whether or not to save enough fuel to finish the race - which meant slowing down - or going all-out for the win. I went conservative and saved enough fuel to go to the end but finished fourth.

Together, we can put the brakes on breast cancer.

My goal is people associate November with COPD awareness month as much as they notice October with breast cancer and pink. That'd be a great thing if it happened. The fact that COPD kills more people than breast cancer and diabetes put together should raise some red flags.

I think that Indy is special to me. The greater the distance between the last time I drove an Indy car and the next time, I wouldn't like that to be too big.

In this society these days, women are widely accepted in all kinds of cross-gender areas. So yeah, it's time!

I would tell kids not be like me, but to try and be better than me. Because I always wanted to be better than everyone I was around. That's what drove me. I wanted to be better than my role models. I'm super competitive.

I was very against pink and purple when I was young, because they were girls' colors. But that was only because I didn't want people to write me off for what I can do. When I got into my 20s, I decided that was stupid.

I'd love to do well on a big weekend with people watching and cheering, of course. But it's not fair to create an expectation level before I know what is realistic. I want to finish as well as possible. Is that top 20? Top 15? Top 25? You just have to play it by ear.

I've never asked for special treatment along the way. And I'm never going to hide the fact that I'm a girl, ever. That's obvious, isn't it?

No one wants to hear my perspective on politics, but I think honestly as you get older, you get more interested in it.

I'm a good blend of both my mom and dad.

The first Indy was definitely the one I remember. It's my favorite race I've ever done. It's the most memorable race I've ever done, for sure. Even more than when I won. I just remember everything about it.

Take those chances and you can achieve greatness, whereas if you go conservative, you'll never know.

I've been taught from a young age to want to be the best driver... It was about being the best driver and not the best girl.

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.

It looks like I have a thing for dangerous sports, don't I?

If there's one great thing I think that's happened over the years, it's that women are being accepted into a man's world in all different areas, whether it's flying an airplane or driving a race car.

In motorsports we work in the grey areas a lot. You're trying to find where the holes are in the rule book.

I've never seen myself as a 'girl driver.' I'm just a driver.

Every time I get into a Nationwide car after being in a Cup car, I feel so much more comfortable than I did previously.
