“I am forever grateful. I just want to thank all the riders and our fans who come see us every weekend and who love racing as much as we do!”
“First and foremost, congratulations to Grant, Barry, Rita and Travis. It’s an honor to be up here being inducted into the HOF with all of them. Just being up here is a dream come true…”
“I’m grateful for all the people in my life who helped me get here, and this one’s for you guys. You deserve all the credit!”
“I am so honored and thankful to be here. Thank you to everyone here, thank you to everyone that voted for me…and thank you to all the great people that have helped me through the years…it truly means a lot.”
“Wow, just wow.”
“I’m very humbled, very thankful…I’m lost for words. I’m stoked to have my name as a part of the legacy of the Hall of Fame!”
“Racing is hard. Racing takes a lot of people and a huge sacrifice from everybody. To get to be the best is amazing…It means so much to me that you would think to honor me here tonight, and this is something I’ll remember and appreciate for the rest of my life.”
