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.
We were so used to winning in those days, I didn't see any reason we wouldn't just continue right on doing that at least a couple of times each year, ... But over the past couple of years ... we haven't been in position to do that as much. I think we've got some more victories to go, but in case that doesn't happen we'll make sure we enjoy this one.
I'm sure they could not see out of their back windows, not that they needed to because nobody else was close.
After the sun sets, there's no more problem.
I'm not saying that $10,000 isn't a lot of money, but I think Jeff can probably handle that OK. He probably felt after it was over that it was worth that much anyway.
I'm going to fire him for next week and then he's going to come back at Charlotte too,
I'm exhausted but very emotional. As I came down the straightaway, it was just an incredible feeling.
I'm fired up about this. I don't understand it.
I'm extremely happy. That's actually faster than I thought I could go with this car.
I know you're supposed to slow down, and I know that I saw the caution lights, but I was just making sure.
I'm pissed off, to be quite honest. You've got the same people doing stupid stuff back there and there's no reason for that.
I'm not sure that person exists. I don't know that you're going to have that whole package in one person again.
It's incredible what has taken place. I think that's why we see so many competitive teams now, because not only with what NASCAR has done with templates and things, but the engineers we have involved now.
It's definitely having an impact. I don't know that you can say yet that it is good or bad.
