Eddie Gossage Quotations

We didn't want things to get out of hand.

NASCAR's new testing policy for the Cup series may be beneficial for teams, but for the speedways, it is a lost promotional opportunity.

We dusted ourselves off and stayed in the game. It was a lot like being a pro expansion team. You go through some bad years, but you stick with it and stay the course.

There are all sorts of things that you can do during non-race times to help pay the rent. We've had eight different things going on at once where people were renting the track. If you drove by, it would largely look like the place was quiet, that the grass was just growing. But we use this place all year long.

I hope they'll be back. I really do. I want them back. But we have to see a lot of things. One is will there be any effect on us by no longer being the race after the Indy 500.

In those 10 years, we've watched the Cowboys go through four of the six head coaches they've had in their 46-year history.
