I Was Very Against Pink And Purple

On Memorial Day, I Was Out Floating On Lake Norman And Came Across Denny Hamlin. We Struck Up A Conversation, And One Of The First Things We Were Talking About Was How Much It Helped Him When He Started Racing The Cup Car And How Much It Helped His Nationwide Program.

I Was Very Against Pink And Purple When I Was Young, Because They Were Girls' Colors. But That Was Only Because I Didn't Want People To Write Me Off For What I Can Do. When I Got Into My 20s, I Decided That Was Stupid.

No One Wants To Hear My Perspective On Politics, But I Think Honestly As You Get Older, You Get More Interested In It.

I Just Go Where My Heart Tells Me, Where My Gut Tells Me To Go, Where I'm Enjoying My Life The Most, Where I Feel Like I Can Have The Most Success. I've Truly Enjoyed My Experience In Nascar, To The Point That I Want To Do It Full Time.

Being A Girl, My Parents Could Have Discouraged Me From Racing ... But My Family Has Such A Passion And So Much Confidence In Me, And That Goes A Long Way.
