contact good guys hang main win worked year
We had a lot of contact tonight, but you know what? I'm not going to hang my head. These guys worked their butts off all year long but we didn't make the Chase. The world's not over with. The main thing is that we need to go and win a race. I think that would be good for all the guys.
effort good last people prove races run start
That was a pretty good run for us, ... To get a top-10 qualifying effort was a good feeling. We've got a lot to prove to a lot of people in the last 10 races and we can start that (today).
amazing dad good great knows love money people time
He's a great teacher. It's amazing what he understands about people and how to read them and get the most out of them. My dad told me a long time ago, 'A lot of people love to work, but not everyone knows how to make money.' I think Dale understands how to make money and make good decisions.
gas good great guys half job knew newman ryan scared stay
Only that car, ... My guys are doing such a great job and everything is just gelling together. We have been good all day long, but Ryan Newman doesn't stay out of the gas long so I went out there and knew what I had to do. It about scared me half to death.
feeling good great luck race run
To a race at a place that we had never run that well at before or never had good luck at before was a great, great feeling for my team,
car care cars coming fall forget good points race runs win worry
The ball's in our court, ... All we have to do is go and try to win each race and not worry about the points, forget them, and just let them fall where they may-- We're coming to two racetracks that the 38 car usually runs good at. We're pretty optimistic. All we got to do is just go through the motions, get our cars comfortable, and we're going to let the points take care of themselves.
cry frustrated good hang heads race team teams top
We're still frustrated not being in the top 10. I think we're a good enough team to be in the Chase, but we're not going to hang our heads and cry about it. There's a lot of good race teams out there.
bit chase good running situations
We're running good enough to make the Chase. If we get those situations back, we're well in the chase right now with a little bit of a cushion.
crew definitely gets good might tires track translate
Definitely when you think tires will be an issue, but even otherwise. It's good just to have the track time, but the crew also gets to see some things that might translate to Sunday.
car cars fast good smooth sucked
The car is so fast and so smooth and everyone has their cars sucked down in the front, ... It's such a good car; we just need to get some luck.
ahead behind best guys points pressure run
We just need to go up there and run the best way we can. I feel like the pressure is not on us. I think the guys that are only one or 11 points behind or 10 points ahead of 10th place have more pressure than we have.
car fun last taking top victory win year
We're going there (California) to win because we had so much fun there last year in Victory Lane. We think we're taking a car that can win, or at least get in the top five.
beat bodies everybody fast guys knocks operation somebody tested until
The Roush guys have everybody beat right now on bodies and things like that. They tested very well at Vegas, and until somebody knocks them off the perch that's the operation to beat - here, at Vegas, Atlanta, Texas, all the fast 11/2-mile and two-mile tracks.
believe car great maybe owner race robert sponsors whether
The world's not over with, ... I've got some great sponsors on this race car that believe in us whether we made it or not. I got a great car owner in Robert Yates. We've just got to try and maybe get that 11th spot.
