This is what we need to do. It's championship form right here. We wanted to win, but we came here and led a lot of laps and ran real strong and finished second. It just goes to show how solid this race team is.
This is what people pay their money to come see ... is big crashes at Talladega, ... Everybody loves it.
They're going to have to have another off day like they did at Dover and we're going to have to not get a flat tire in order to close in on them,
They're going to be very hard to beat,
There's a noticeable difference between the Fusion and the Taurus. The Fusion, I think, is going to be a lot better car for us.
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).
It's something I'm going to think about for a long, long time. I lost the championship by 35 points and we lost over 50 (points) with the loose wheel.
Everybody is going to have the same thing. To me, that's going to be disastrous. I've heard all secondhand information. I haven't sat down and said, 'What exactly are we going to be able to do?' but I heard that we're not going to be able to do this, we're not going to be able to do that.
It was hard to tell a lot of difference between the two cars. The balance seems really good on it, and I'm real happy with it so far.
They've got their work cut out for them if they're going to get under my skin. You can clearly see guys, the minute they get upset about something or get something in their head, they go crazy. There are two guys in the Chase like that. It's funny to see.
It wasn't the car I was thinking I was going to have. But the guys did a great job in the pits, and I kept it off the wall and didn't get any flat tires. We just did everything we needed to do, really. ... We wanted a top-five (finish), so we can't really complain.
It's a hard thing not to be overconfident because they say, 'Well, you had such a great year last year, what do you expect this year? Certainly, I'd like to win the championship, but, boy, if I had to replay last year I don't know that I'd do a thing different.
It's a hard thing not to be overconfident.
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.
