best cameras gave happen line palms realized shake walking
The best part was they gave me a line to read. The cameras started to roll, and as I was walking over to shake the other character's hand, I realized my palms were a little sweaty, which doesn't happen very often.

My hat's off to Mark Martin, ... He almost won this race. It was only the tires that beat him; he had the best car.

Can you believe that? I'm having a great time. I hit the wall yesterday and the guys didn't complain a bit. They just put the car back together and it was great. That was the best car I've had in a long time.
best car driven
Right off the truck, the car was unbelievable, ... That was the best car I've driven in a while.
believe best brad crew cross great house last length opinions talked
I talked to Brad at pretty great length last night. Brad and I have never had a cross word. I was over at his house with the whole crew the other night. I believe it was just differing opinions over the best way to do things at the shop.
harder help might none sacrifice
In a way, it might make it harder to do things for one another that could help each other on the track. None of us want to sacrifice anything.

I'm like a sponge, but also I just try to be efficient and learn.

It was a gamble. Everything has to work just out just right in those kinds of situations. I needed another few laps. I wish we had another caution with five laps to go.

I'm excited about the future of the Silver Crown Series. I think the new car design and the new venues they will be racing at will really spark a new found interest in the series. It's really an exciting time because I think they are on the verge of exploding in popularity and exposure and I'm just grateful to be a part of that.
awesome believe cup driven excited glad means number start zero
I'm really excited about getting my 50th start. I read that the other day, and I can't believe that I will have driven 50 Nextel Cup races; I didn't ever think I'd get to drive one. It's just awesome and it means the world to me. I am really glad to be a part of the sport at this level. Hopefully, there is another zero after that start number before I quit.
