We need a strong run to rebuild the momentum we have lost in the last few weeks. A win this week would be a great rebound from the points we lost last week, and a victory in Ford's backyard is always something we want.
We'll just try to get as many points as we can and hope that Ryan makes a few more wrecks and we can gain some positions,
Tony has a problem with running you into the fence the second he gets position. We were running side by side, and he started running me into the fence.
Tony has a problem with running guys into the fence as soon as he gets position. I don't know why he would try to run me in the fence.
There at the end, we were running down the 21 (Jeff Burton) and the 60 (Edwards). We passed the 39 (Newman) and were closing in on them pretty good. I felt like I would probably get to the 21 before the end of the race. I don't think I could get to the 60, but then the caution came out.
This track has got a ton of grip right now. It is really, really fast. My car was just really solid. It was a really good lap. I didn't want to try for a second one because you're always taking a chance qualifying here because you are always right on the edge.
We just have to make up points on the 20, ... We made up a little bit on the 48 today and a little bit on the 12, but we've got to finish more than one spot ahead of the 20 to gain anything on him. But those guys are doing a good job. They're in a point's mode and that's what they're doing.
We wanted to be up in the top 10...we maybe came up a tenth (of a second) short of what we could have been, but I'm still happy.
There have been a few exceptions and they got into really good rides, but if you're gonna bring a guy in that's not gonna be in a premier ride with a premier team, he's gonna fail. . . . You can't put a new driver and a new team together. It's just not gonna work.
But the last two weeks we've gotten it done, so we're back on track.
It's not over and I'm not giving up, but I am also realistic, ... We needed a good day. We had a bad day.
The odds are that one of us may have some trouble along the way.
That's pretty unlikely, as well, so we can only do as good as we can do and can't really worry about the outcome. We're worried about it, but we really can't do anything about the outcome of (Stewart).
I've had some success there in all three NASCAR Series and we're taking the car that we won with in the spring,
