emulate front matter runs trying works
It doesn't matter how he runs the first part of the race, he always runs up front and I think that's because he works on his stuff. So that's someone I'm trying to emulate there.
extremely start work
It's extremely disappointing. It's not how we wanted to start our season, but we'll just have to work harder.
awesome bad charlotte close earlier fast finish five focusing good great home hopefully luck plans race run season shake showing surface team top track work
It will be great to be back in Charlotte this weekend. It's always good to race close to home. We had a disappointing race there earlier this season and we know that we can run well there. They have a new surface on the track and that will make the track very fast and I like fast. That will be awesome and work to our advantage. The team plans on focusing on a top five finish and hopefully shake off some of this bad luck we have been experiencing. We have a great team and we plan on showing that at Lowe's.
work-out digging proof
Whatever it is your doing out there, don't lose hope, you just keep digging and things can work out. I'm proof.
happen work
This Fusion, they have put a lot of work into it and no one will let something happen that we don't want to happen without someone voicing our opinion. Speculation is a pretty big thing.
caution few five kinds laps needed wish work
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.
absence assured current evolve extremely fair future knowing means practice price public scrutiny system taxpayer whether work
In the long haul, the absence of any public scrutiny means the practice in the future could evolve into one that is an extremely uncompetitive, behind-the-scenes give away of work with the taxpayer not knowing whether a fair price is being paid. The current system may have flaws, but at least the public is assured of a competitive price.
edge tony
Tony Stewart has the edge right now because he has the lead,
four
We went in this thing and we pitted with four and I thought we could make it back up there.
engine great shop
The Roush Yates engine guys, I went over to the shop the other day, and they feel great about the new engines. I'm excited.
achieve competitor dominant jack less lucky perfection settle team though
I've teamed up with Jack Roush, and I couldn't be with a more dominant team than I am right now, ... Other than that, as a competitor I try not to settle for anything less than perfection even though we don't achieve it most of the time. I'm just very lucky to be a part of the team I'm part of.
deserve expect goals happen heading honestly looking million point reasons
It would be more than I deserve at this point in my career, ... It was one of our goals heading into the season, but honestly at this point I don't expect it. It would be great, don't get me wrong, but if it doesn't happen I'm not going to get upset. There are a million reasons we shouldn't make it, looking back.
