Post your favorite car quote/quote!
I see a lot of good quotes on this forum. Thought I would get them all in one place so we can all enjoy the right words. One I always like is "Drive it like you stole it" Not that I drive my cars into the ground but its a fun sayin. Lets hear them!

I spent over 90% of my income on cars, booze and women. The other 10% I just wasted.

Horsepower is for those who can't keep their speed up in the corners.
It is more fun to drive a slow car fast than a fast car slow. Both probably by a 356 owner....

What's the quote from Carrol Shelby? Something to the effect that "Thank God there is no 48 hours at LeMans because only Porsche would finish"?

Driver has no cash
We interrupt this marriage to bring you the racing season. You must be fast, cause you were haulin' ass when I passed you! Driving a race car is like making love to a gorilla - you dont get to stop when you get tired Because golf, football, and baseball only require ONE ball. My drinking team has a racing problem Seen by the gas cap Insert cash here No such thing as bad weather, just bad tire choice No Fear? Then youre not going fast enough You can sleep in your race car, but you cant race in your house. Printed upside down on a Formula Vee: If you can read this, roll me over! On a Pinto: Hit me and you go too.. Dont follow me, Im just making this s**t up! I may be slow, but Im in front of you Seen on the inside: "First pedal on the right"

The following is a guide for interpreting descriptions of race cars for sale in your local classifieds or racing digest:
Topflight Nationally Competitive Car. - means: Car is illegal as hell. Great car for next season. - means: Car is only "slightly illegal. Great National Car. - means: Car is probably pretty good for regional competition. Great Regional Car. - means: Car is a piece of crap about to lose its eligibility. Great SChool Car. - means: Car is almost recognizable as an automobile of some sort. Great Enduro Car. - means: Car is currently on fire. Needs Completion. - means: Car was on fire recently, but has been extinguished." Must Sell - means: Owner is currently trapped under the burning car.

Jeremy Clarkson had a good quote. Something about in the battle between German engineering and God the germans will always prevail.

"Objects in my mirror means I'm winning."
Not my quote, but very good.
