My sister and I would race on the weekends. It was a way for my sister, my mom and me to spend time with my dad. He worked all week and worked a lot so it was a great way for us to spend time as a family and have fun.

More quotes by Danica Patrick
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.
Danica Patrick
One of the areas I have a little less confidence in is giving any kind of a speech.
Danica Patrick
I never thought I'd be a role model this early. It caught me off-guard, but it says a lot about how I was brought up, what my values have been, and how my parents raised me. It's very flattering that being myself is enough to be a role model.
Danica Patrick
Every time I get into a Nationwide car after being in a Cup car, I feel so much more comfortable than I did previously.
Danica Patrick
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.
Danica Patrick
I think there's a lot of deep-rooted history in England with racing. Lots of Formula One teams are based there. Formula One is obviously a huge sport over in England and Europe.
Danica Patrick
I think you have to feel comfortable with your car. You have to go into Turn 1, every lap, with confidence. You have to be sure of yourself and your equipment.
Danica Patrick
In this society these days, women are widely accepted in all kinds of cross-gender areas. So yeah, it's time!
Danica Patrick
I've never seen myself as a 'girl driver.' I'm just a driver.
Danica Patrick
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.
Danica Patrick
You have to keep thinking, I can be better.
Danica Patrick
I'm a big believer in everybody being themselves. If not doing a swimsuit calendar is yourself, that's great. But if doing a swimsuit calendar is yourself, then you should be able to do it. What I do outside the car adds to who I am and expresses a different side of me.
Danica Patrick
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.
Danica Patrick
I would also tell kids to make sure that they love whatever they end up doing in life. To really be good at something and excel you have to love it and have to be dedicated to it. Not every day is great and not every day is easy, but you do it because you love it.
Danica Patrick
Since I started in Nascar, popularity has definitely gone up. I've become more attractive and helpful to companies that are looking for spokespersons. So from that perspective, things are going really well.
Danica Patrick
I think you can be happy and still be competitive. A good lesson for everybody is to think a bit before you speak and represent who you really are instead of the brash emotional you.
Danica Patrick
I'm definitely different and I know that.
Danica Patrick
Take those chances and you can achieve greatness, whereas if you go conservative, you'll never know.

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.
Danica Patrick
When pressure's on and when the spotlight's on, I feel like it ultimately ends up becoming some of my better moments.
