They don't pass inspection, they're allowed to sit there and jump up and down on their cars and whatever they need to do everything I saw (reported) was either on the back page or the next-to-last page, ... I'm sorry, but I'm not understanding what you all (media) are doing here.
You can't lie about anything. Everything here is captured on film and tape.
This pretty much seals our fate in regards to making the Chase. We went for so long this season without having issues like this. I guess we're due.

For as long as I can remember, we spent the Labor Day weekend at Darlington (S.C.).
There is the way that you go about things, the setups that are run,
That race car doesn't know how old I am. There is nothing that I could do in a race car at 39 that I can't do now at 49.
They see it as a sign of weakness. Other guys try to clear the air before the next race, which I think is the best way.
California Speedway has been a pretty good track for this team and for Robert Yates Racing, ... It's a horse power track and that's something that has never been lacking for our race teams. California is one of the tracks where we ran decent this year. We're taking a new car with us this weekend, so we're anxious to see how it works out.

Hopefully, in these next nine races we can see some good things that are going to happen for the entire organization. That's what all this was done for.
Honestly, no. Until we do something that will physically damage the design of the car, this won't accomplish much.
If you're going to continue to do that, eventually you're going to wreck. Ultimately we know our job is to go out here and race, but that doesn't have to include running into each other every single lap.
If you look at it, we've improved our team immensely in a lot of areas. We have a better product with the Ford Fusion. We have a better engineering staff than we've ever had at Robert Yates Racing, and we have two very hungry crew chiefs that have come in to take over and lead this group. So I would say that the potential is there for both teams to be in the top 10 and make the Chase, it's just a matter of us going out and making that happen now.
