Why didn't I know this?

They've never been in a fight with a bunch of crew members – I have.

They've never had to back a driver who's been wrecked or has wrecked somebody, and that other crew is coming after them – I have.

They've never been in the bottom of a snake pit all greased up and rarin' to go, and knowin' that the only way out was to wring that snakes neck with your cold, dead hands - I have.

It really frustrates me to hear and read all these columnists who think they know what the hell is going on when they ain't got a freaking clue.

But when two guys lock horns here in these steel chariots and they go to battle, all of a sudden it's like, "Oh my God, you're going to kill somebody." I don't understand the mentality – you called for this, you want it and then when you're given it, you want it to be tainted and you want to tweak on it some more because, "Oh, this is not what we meant."

"I had a real run-in with 'em at the Cow Palace in San Francisco," Knievel says of the Angels. "One of them threw a tire iron at me out of the grandstand when I was ready to make the jump. So I made the jump anyway, but when I came back in he was standing in the middle of the floor giving me the finger, and I knocked him on his ass with my motorcycle." [...]

Knievel continues, "Four or five of them jumped on me and the whole crowd came out of the grandstand and just beat the shit out of 'em. Hit 'em with 4x4s, everything-just slaughtered them."

The Angels remember it a little differently. The crowd did indeed jump in, but it was the club members who primarily made use of whatever two-by-four studs were available.

"Steel chariots," how toughie-toughie-tuff-tuff.
