Moveable walls, concrete tracks, fueling by computer, air jacks 'stead of the 30 pound sledge hammers they use, mandatory retirement age, etc. When the hell they goona get rid of the fucking restrictor plate and go to smaller engines? Don't give me that horseshit answer that you can killed in a bathtub. It's this simple: whoever's running NASCAR has got his head up his ass. Course that's just an old racers opinion. Some of these things Billy, remind me of a kid who played with his peter too much when he was little."- Smokey Yunick to Bill France Jr.

Best car quote EVER:

"It's got a cop motor, a 440-cubic-inch plant. It's got cop tires, cop suspension, cop shocks. It's a model made before catalytic converters so it'll run good on regular gas. So what do you say, is it the new Bluesmobile or what?"

"Perhaps.  But we at Scuderia Ferrari are not about the smart thing to do."

"Some journalists work for years before they get their own column. All Ezra Dyer '99 had to do was ask.

A former writer for the Echo, Dyer was painting houses in Maine when he saw an ad in The Boston Globe for a job opening at The Improper Bostonian, an 80,000-circulation free magazine for 20-somethings. "I applied to be features editor or something like that that I had no shot of getting," Dyer said. "But I sent in a bunch of Colby Echo articles and I got a call from the publisher and I went in to see him and he said, 'I didn't want you to come in to talk about the features editor position because, honestly, you're right out of school and you've never even done anything like that.' But he said, 'What would you ideally like to do down the road?' I said, 'Well, I'd like to do what I have been doing, basically what I was doing for the Echo, have a column like that.' He said, 'Okay, I'll give you a column.'"
