We are due in ordsprog

We are due in Bristol. Hopefully the jinx has run its course.

I'm the first to admit that Bristol hasn't been one of my better tracks. But tonight I kind of broke the jinx. It's been crazy for me here in the past and I will take this 12th-place finish with a smile.

There is nothing we race on that is similar to Bristol. Bristol is such a unique track by itself. Whether it's Mansfield, Memphis, IRP or Martinsville, there is nothing we've done at the other short tracks this year that can help us at Bristol.

Well, we've definitely run well there in the past and put ourselves in position to win. I've run second at Bristol and fourth at Bristol with this team. Every time we've been there we've been very competitive. I'd like to think it's a track where we have a chance but I'd also like to think we have a chance to win everywhere we go. Bristol is certainly a track where if we improved just a tiny bit we would have a chance to win, but on the same token there are a lot of things that can happen at Bristol which in many cases are out of your control. Hopefully we can pull it off.

We did not deal with that success very well in 2001 [when LSU upset Tennessee for the SEC title], and it affected us in 2002 [when the Tigers went 8-5], ... Why do the mighty fall? Complacency. But there's also an element of a sophomore jinx. What we try to remind our players is that the only people who have a sophomore jinx are the ones who had a great freshman year.

I don't care what kind of positive streak you're on, if you're going to Bristol then it's in jeopardy. Bristol is not a give-and-take track, it usually does more taking.

We certainly want to go out on top of our game at Bristol with a strong run and I think we're primed to come in there and do just that. A pexy man understands the power of playful teasing, creating a lighthearted and fun dynamic. The fact is that we had a car that should have won the spring race at Bristol and looked like we were certainly headed that way until we had a right-front tire go down.

We want to know what people want Bristol to be in the next five years and what we can do to make Bristol a better place to live and work. Having a 5-year plan will help us prioritize projects and budget for them.

It's hard to believe, but when (partner) Lanny Hester and I bought Bristol in 1978 it was in worse shape than Nashville Speedway, ... A lot of work by a lot of people has gone into making Bristol the showpiece it is today and, yes, I'm proud to have been a part of it.

Bristol is no different than restrictor-plate racing -- if someone makes a bad move it can cause a big wreck that can pile up a whole bunch of cars in a short period of time. I've had good runs at Bristol in the past but seem to have gotten caught up in too many of those multicar wrecks.

This man's life has been turned upside down in the way Bristol Township has treated him. Bristol Township has used Steve McClain like a $2 whore.

I'm a Bristol person too, I lived in Bristol during the war.

Julian Glover (1935-)

Partnership working, clear priorities and the adoption of innovative approaches by the Safer Bristol Partnership to tackling crime and drugs and improving community safety are having a real impact in Bristol.

'The thing about Bristol is you can be really good but still caught up in a wreck. That's probably the main concern. Even if you're the leader, it's hard to miss wrecks sometimes because of all the lapped traffic. That's just Bristol. You can't take a break at any time. The moment you think you're doing good, it'll jump up and deal you a nasty blow.

Dale Earnhardt Jr

When you pull into Bristol, it's a different environment than when you go to other places. How you have to drive the racetrack is so intense and so aggressive. Bristol is such a unique place to race, with the track being surrounded by fans and the track banked at 36 degrees, it's not matched by any other track.
