Wilson: Uh-oh. You hit the wall.
Tim: They're all passing me. I was so close to it.
Wilson: Well, Tim, you were doing fine when you weren't thinking about the minicam or the mirrors and such. You were going on instinct. You were one with the car. You were Zenlike.
Tim: I was Zenlike. I never met Zen. What was he like?
Wilson: No, no, no, Tim. Zen is a state of mind. Like when you dance, you can't worry about what your hands and your feet are doing. You just have to let the music envelop you.
