Days of Thunder Quotes

Days of Thunder is one of the best movies ever...come on Jerry Bruckheimer pre The Rock...

Below are a few of my favorite quotes from it:

"He didnt bump you.  He didnt nudge you.  He rubbed you.  And Rubbin Son is racin."

"I know Cole, he always goes to the outside.  He's going high.  He's going low.  Son of a B*tch"

Cole: Yeah, well the s.o.b. just slammed into me!

Harry Hogge: No, no, he didn't slam into you, he didn't bump you, he didn't nudge you...he RUBBED you. And rubbin, son, is racin'.

Cole is being searched by a female trooper who notices he has an erection.

Female Trooper: Looks like we found something.

Male Trooper: What is it?

Female Trooper: A concealed weapon.

Dr. Claire Lewicki: You and Rowdy have the same illness, it's called denial and it's probably going to kill you both.

Harry Hogge: Tim, take a look at that hound over there. That's the best coon-dog I ever seen or heard about and I didn't have to teach him a damn thing.

Tim Daland: If you're from California, you're not a Yankee. You're not really anything.

Harry Hogge: What do you know about stock car racing?

Cole Trickle: Well... watched it on television, of course.

Harry Hogge: You've seen it on television?!

Cole Trickle: ESPN. The coverage is excellent, you'd be surprised at how much you can pick up.

Harry Hogge: I'm sure I would.

Tim Daland: You said you'd look at him.

Harry Hogge: I've looked at him.

Tim Daland: I paid twenty five hundred dollars to use this track today, Harry.

Cole Trickle: Forget it, he needs a brand name like Exon or Richard Petty.

Harry Hogge: Well, I know a damn race driver when I see one.

Rowdy Burns: You run good.

Cole Trickle: Thank you.

Rowdy Burns: Now go get your own car and we'll see how you do in a crowd.

During a pit stop.

Harry Hogge: Alright. While we're still under a caution, I want you to go back out on that track and hit the pace car.

Cole Trickle: Hit the pace car?

Harry Hogge: Hit the pace car!

Cole Trickle: What for?

Harry Hogge: Because you've hit every other goddamned thing out there, I want you to be perfect!

Tim Daland: And Harry, I know you're great, you know you're great, but if the guy in the car doesn't trust you, we're never gonna win a damn race.

Dr. Claire Lewicki: Boy, you're very quick.

Cole Trickle: You oughta see me drive.

Dr. Claire Lewicki: Tell me what you love so much about racing.

Cole Trickle: Speed. To be able to control it. To know that I can control something that's out of control.

Harry Hogge: The drivers can't stand to be reminded of what can happen to 'em in a racecar. They, they don't go to hospitals, they don't go to funerals. You get a driver to a funeral before he's actually dead, you've made history, darlin'.

Dr. Claire Lewicki: Control is an illusion, you infantile egomaniac. Nobody knows what's gonna happen next: not on a freeway, not in an airplane, not inside our own bodies and certainly not on a racetrack with 40 other infantile egomaniacs.

Cole Trickle: Claire, I'm more afraid of bein' nothing than I am of being hurt.

Tim Daland: He's destroyed both my cars. He destroyed both my cars. He's fired! You're fired! You're all fired!
