Dick Petty:  You hear the news? Some girl from uptown’s sending out a challenge to all the greasers on the westside.

Mechanic: That’s a laugh. There ain’t a car in the world faster than Roddy. It’s greased lightning on a two-lane blacktop.

Dick Petty: And she knows it. That’s why she doesn’t wanna race me. She wants to do a chicken run. 

Mechanic:  But you ain’t chicken boss. A turkey maybe, but chicken? Not a chance!

Dick Petty: That’s right. I don’t know the meaning of fear. A teacher tried to tell me once, so I dropped out of the second grade and became a drag racer instead.
