Across Quotes
Thousands stand and chant. Around them in the world, people ride escalators going up and sneak secret glances at the faces coming down. People dangle teabags over hot water in white cups. Cars run silently on the autobahns, streaks of painted light. People sit at desks and stare at office walls. They smell their shirts and drop them in the hamper. People bind themselves into numbered seats and fly across time zones and high cirrus and deep night, knowing there is something they've forgotten to do.

Bad Quotes
To win Oktoberfest is just awesome. I've been coming here since I was a little kid. Yeah, we had something we liked (in a set-up). The car handled awesome. The main thing I was thinking was to put cars down (a lap). We've had good cars all year. The last half of the year thing really picked up. The first half, we had pure bad luck.

Coming Quotes
We've been fortunate enough to have really good racecars whenever we unload at Vegas over the years and I really don't expect this weekend to be any different. The guys do a great job setting these cars up. Obviously, at this point it's too early to tell how the weekend will go, but we've got some momentum and we're coming to a track where we've enjoyed some success in recent years. We're coming in with high expectations.

Address Quotes
We anticipate having a significant number of parts available over the course of the next month to address the problem, ... Even though the risk is low, the consequences should it happen are significant. As a precaution, we are asking customers to bring their cars into the dealership to have them looked at.

Comparable Quotes
You know, when he started this project, it wasn't to go out and be the fastest. Just to know that he had his dream and put it together, knowing he was able to make it a reality, that was all I wanted, ... We've gone to plenty of places in the states, we've seen a lot of cars and a lot of races. His truck is comparable to what we see out there and that made me realize how skilled Carlos is. It makes me really proud of him.
-
Bit Quotes
We probably wouldn't have done anything different in a real-life situation. We kept him in sight and kept matters safe. I think our lines through the corners were about the same as his, he was probably a little quicker getting into the turn as our cars are a bit longer and heavier. The handling is a lot different, but we kept up with him. We chase different cars all the time, I was proud of our officers. We kept up with Earnhardt Jr!
-
Aim Quotes
We have listened keenly to our customers and refined the cars to boost our competitiveness on both sides of the Atlantic. We already have a winning concept, so the aim was fine-tuning rather than making major changes. More sophisticated lines and materials and a better driving experience without compromising on demands concerning safety and power trains with good environmental properties.
-
Afford Quotes
What it means is that the taste of the people who are buying at Barrett-Jackson are more attuned to them (the muscle cars and hot rods). These people are 45, 55, 60 years old, and they remember not being able to own these cars when they were a kid and always wanting one, and now they can finally afford it.
-
Call Quotes
Walking through the streets of New Haven (Conn.) with William Sloane Coffin Jr. is like being in a movie about a small-town folk hero. People come up to shake his hand, students run after him with urgent questions, old folks stop their cars to call out, 'Good luck Bill!' and 'Howdy, Reverend.

Buy Quotes
Who's most likely to buy our products, who's least likely to buy them and who's up for grabs. This has given us a much deeper insight than we've ever had before using traditional demographic or vehicle segment-based models. One of the most important findings from this research is that there remains a huge market for American cars in this country. And the potential is significantly larger than the roughly 55 percent market share than GM, Ford and Chrysler together command today.

Aggressive Quotes
We were waiting to see who was going to pit. We wanted to know who didn't pit and who was going to go for it. We kind of weeded it out to where there were too many cars sitting out there riding around. We kind of played it safe. We didn't really think we could make it on fuel. If we went to one or two to go and took a couple seconds of fuel, we probably would have ended up racing for third. Instead, we put tires on and got a top-five out of it. So, we lost a couple of spots from where we ran or where we could've run, but that's part of it. Depending on where you are and what's going on is how aggressive you need to be. We just kind of played it on the safe side.
-
Congress Quotes
We would end up with two railroad crossings instead of a single railroad crossing and that would create some operational problems with stacking up cars when a train might be coming. It is also very difficult to have the railroads come up with a new crossing because they are mandated by Congress to eliminate roadway crossings.

Appear Quotes
This whole show is about people's dreams, making them come true. The whole basis of it is, nobody dreams of pulling a rabbit out of a hat. Nobody dreams of vanishing the Statue of Liberty unless they're me, but . . . I'll do a whole piece about having your perfect dream car, making cars appear and motorcycles appear ? people dream about that. People dream about traveling, so I'll vanish somebody in the audience and make them appear on the beach in Hawaii during the show, with proof, with signatures, with Polaroid pictures, so they know it's happening in real time.

Atlanta Quotes
We're not just thinking of the Daytona 500. We've got cars finished all the way through Atlanta right now. So our race team is a lot better race team and we've got a lot of confidence in our guys. We're getting our structures and processes and procedures and all that stuff in place where a year ago, we didn't have that.

Car Quotes
We had a car that was much better than a tenth place finish. Overall the weekend has been great. We had gear shifting problems the entire race. It was a lot of work, and it got a lot worse just before that last yellow. It was not going into fifth gear. I just couldn't hold on to that fourth place once all the cars were packed together. But, I am happy. You look and see where we are coming from and where we are going. There were four of five guys at the front that were clearly leading the field today and we were a part of that. So, overall it's not that bad.

Ability Quotes
When you get into a pack of cars, then you feel the problem worst, handicapping the driver and handicapping our ability to race. When there's a crosswind, the cars suffer badly as well, which makes them even more difficult to control. They are always fun to drive, but motor racing should be about the best drivers racing the best cars, which offers the best challenge, and my feeling now is that we have come to a bit of a cul-de-sac.
-
Beer Quotes
While it seems counterintuitive, higher gasoline prices are actually helping restrain core inflation, ... With more money being spent for gasoline, consumers have fewer dollars left for discretionary purchases. The net result is that firms are slashing prices on everything from cars to beer in order to move product.
-
Along Quotes
With our fuel costs rising fast, New Zealanders are now starting to think along the same lines as Europeans and are becoming more receptive to smaller, economical passenger cars and vehicles powered by thrifty diesel engines. It makes a lot of sense when you can save 40 per cent on your running costs compared to a larger petrol vehicle.

Against Quotes
When we unloaded on Friday for practice I felt we were going to be OK, but the tires fall off so fast here it's hard to tell if you're getting better or not. We didn't get enough time to practice in qualifying trim so it's hard to judge your times against the others. These cars get really loose when you tape them up, so we tried to be smart when we qualified, although the 40.85 it was a little slower than what we expected. We just missed the set-up by a little, but this place is so fast, you can't be off much and have a drivable car.
