car crown excelled excited good last learn maybe next quicker reason richmond seem silver stock team test week
To be honest, I've never excelled in a Silver Crown Car at Richmond. Maybe it has something to do with the team or maybe me in the car. For some reason I seem to learn quicker in the stock car. We had a good test at Dover last week, too, and I'm really excited to come back to Richmond next week for the race.
both good hopefully map name wish women
I wish her a lot of success. I think she's doing a good job, and hopefully we can both put a good name on the map for women in racing.
good known prefer
She would be prefer to be known as a good racer,
good job understand women
I think Danica's doing a really good job but I don't necessarily understand why -- just because we're two women -- that we're always being compared,
bit familiar finish full good happy improved learned mostly passing performance race strong truck
I think it's good to get in the truck and get a little bit familiar with it before we go full time. I want to have a strong finish and a good performance but mostly I just want to improve. If I feel like I come away from this race having learned a lot and improved and passing cars, then I'll be pretty happy with it.
good ready start step tough
I'm going to have a good car, good people, and I think I'm ready. It's going to be a big step and a lot of tough competition, but you've got to start somewhere. I'll be as ready as I'm going to be.
attention energy good positive prefer
A lot of attention is good attention. Positive energy is great, but I'd prefer to concentrate on my driving.
car experience given good great opportunity people ray step stock wait
Ray Evernham has given me a great opportunity and I have good people around me, so it makes things a lot easier, ... I'm very excited. It is a big step and I don't have that much stock car experience and I can't wait to get that first one over and done with. It's the opportunity of a lifetime.
affect board draft fairly hard others practice quick second time track
We were second quick on the board in practice (Thursday), but it's hard to tell because with others on the track it can affect the draft and it makes your time a little better than it was. I think we are going to do fairly good.
car far spun took weight
I got the car too far down on the apron and took the weight out of the right rear. Then it just spun around on me. That's disappointing. That's not what we wanted to do out there.
along backing competent extremely fiery hold moving push rather ready red seem wants
Certainly, she's extremely disappointed, because things were moving along and now it may seem like we are backing up. I don't want her to think that we are backing up. She's a very confident, very competent driver. And she's like I've said before, a fiery little red head, and she wants to go. That's one of the reason's she's going to make it, is because she's ready to go, and I would rather have someone that I have to hold back than someone I have to push forward.
asked compete grew hockey played remember somebody
She grew up a tomboy, ... She actually played on a boys' hockey team. I remember once somebody asked her if she thought she could compete with the boys. She never thought she couldn't.
competition difference five huge jump races ready run step
I think I'm about as ready as I'm going to be, ... It's a big jump for me. I've only run five ARCA races and it's a huge difference between ARCA competition and the Busch series. So, I just have to take it one step at a time.
