  • I hooked up my accelerator pedal in my car to my brake lights. I hit the gas, people behind me stop, and I'm gone. -- Steven Wright
  • You have to maintain the balance between fast growth and smooth growth. It's like driving a car and knowing when to balance the gas pedal and the brake. -- Guo Guangchang
  • You're pulling 4-5G for a lot of the corners around the lap. We build up lactic acid because there are a lot of vibrations in the car, and you have to have strong legs to hit the brake pedal. We need to be fit to do every lap at 100%. -- Jenson Button
  • Driving with one foot on the accelerator and the other on the brake is likely to get you nowhere, but certainly will burn out vital parts of your car. Similarly, cutting taxes on the middle class, but increasing them on the 'rich' is likely to result in an economic burnout. -- Terry Savage
  • People ask how hard it can be sitting down for work during a 500-mile race? Well, without power steering or power brakes, holding onto 650 horses in a car that has nearly 3,000 pounds of downforce and can produce up to 4Gs vertically and laterally can be extremely tough - even sitting down. -- Charlie Kimball
  • There is a limit to the application of democratic methods. You can inquire of all the passengers as to what type of car they like to ride in, but it is impossible to question them as to whether to apply the brakes when the train is at full speed and accident threatens. -- Leon Trotsky
  • The trick at Le Mans is to get the car 'in the window.' Everything is critical: the tyre pressure, the brake temperature, and that means you have to push the car a lot to get it into the window - it's about getting everything to work right and getting the car to flow through the corners. -- Tom Kristensen
  • To understand the intensity of driving an F1 car, you have to be in it. When you're driving a 750hp machine at 200mph, the noise and the vibrations are incredible. The G-force when you take big corners is like someone trying to rip your head off. You hit the brakes, and it feels as if the skin is being pulled off your body. -- Jenson Button
  • emotion without discipline is as dangerous as a high-powered car without brakes. -- Helen Kieran Reilly
  • Living with a conscience is like driving a car with the brakes on. -- Budd Schulberg
  • It sounds to me like selling a car with faulty brakes, and then buying an insurance policy on those cars. -- Phil Angelides
  • It is amazing how may drivers, even at the Formula One Level, think that the brakes are for slowing the car down. -- Mario Andretti
  • I had this feeling that he and I , in this moment, were a car crash, and instead of putting on the brakes, I was hitting the accelerator. -- Maggie Stiefvater
