Lisa Belgetti: [ to Delaney ] Why is it so important to you to drive faster than other people?

Michael Delaney : This isn't a thousand to one shot. This is a professional bloodsport. And it can happen to you. And then it can happen to you again.

Lisa Belgetti : When people risk their lives, shouldn't it be for something important?

Michael Delaney : Well, it better be.

Lisa Belgetti : But what is so important about driving faster than anyone else?

Michael Delaney : Lotta people go through life doing things badly. Racing's important to men who do it well. When you're racing, it's life. Anything that happens before or after is just waiting.

Enjoy!
