I don't think you can ever question the decision that your boss makes.
He's going to actually say he got beat up by a girl?
I almost take it as a compliment that people will see me, and say things and be angry.
Yeah, OK. I think they've crashed every race.
There are people all over the place. Kids and adults. Men and women. It's been really cool. Having this whole role model thing happen is definitely something that happened a lot quicker than what I thought. It's really easy because it's not trying. I'm not, like, trying to be a role model. I haven't tried to go out of my way to inspire people. When you're real and you're authentic and you try to give honest answers all the time, then it's easy.
The experience we have gained over the last year really helped us today. I really had a feel for when I could push and when I needed to be patient and not make mistakes. We just need to build on this momentum.
We definitely had the rookie card to pull out, but we don't have that any more.
I don't know. I never heard of her.
Any kind of track that people come back to time and time again means it's pretty good. I have to imagine it's going to be a lot of fun racing on the road course and the oval at the same time. Just the prestige of this race is enough. I'm looking forward to it.
I hope it goes better. The only way to keep the interest level there is if it gets better and better. I can only do what I can do. I never get frustrated with expectations from everyone else. I just know I go out there and give everything I have, and if that's not good enough, then it's not good enough.
I never let it get in the way of racing. I was definitely always to my car on time.
I just want to see everybody before I left for the year, say bye.
I'm really happy for Buddy. I know this has been a tough season for him. He really deserves this.
I just didn't want to get left out. I still don't. I'm not a gear head at all.
