car fast found helped maybe race races richmond running slick somewhere test tony track turned week won
When I first started running here, I didn't get around the place very good. It was just a real hot, slick race track for me. I don't know what happened, but we showed up one week and this thing was just really, really fast and we've been fast ever since. So it's something in the car or in the set-up of the car that Tony Jr. found -- maybe at a test at Richmond or somewhere -- that has helped us here. That's really how we won those races and turned it around from the first races we had here. So that has a lot to do with it.

Not paying his bills, sleeping on the floor. But all he wanted to do was race and that came first. It still gets me to start talking about Earnhardt. I get emotional.
