came caution closing felt passed running
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.
came maybe short tenth top
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.
came door gave slam
I know the 24 came down and kind of gave me a door slam down the backstretch.
bad came car finished good happened quite tough
That's not too bad considering what happened to us today, ... We just did what we could and that was all we could do. It was a tough day, but we kind of came back from it and finished 13th. The car wasn't as good as it was in the spring, but it was pretty decent. We just couldn't quite get it done.
came finished form goes laps led race ran solid strong team
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.
came couple everybody guys
A couple of young guys came in and did really well, so then everybody thought, /x27/OK, it's all these young guys now as the new thing,
car chance good grip second taking ton track
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.
ahead bit finish gain good guys mode points spot today
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.
doubt hole ourselves team turn
We got ourselves into a little hole in Daytona. But I have no doubt this team will turn it around this weekend.
air bit car category daytona doubt fast handling hole lane level ourselves package perform position skill skills takes taking team turn victory
We got ourselves into a little bit of a hole in Daytona but I have no doubt that this team will turn it around this weekend. We're taking a car that's already been to victory lane and we think it's going to perform even better this season. Here it's a whole different skill level and handling package and stuff. It takes probably a different skill set or different category of skills at Daytona -- where you position your car or how the air is and how fast your car is, so it's just a lot different.
dinners finishing five points steak third top
We're going out for steak dinners and we're finishing in the top five and we're third in points and everything's great.
below four front guys looking problem
Below me, it's looking grim, ... For four guys in front of you to have a problem is pretty unlikely. For one or two guys, it can happen. Three, yeah, but to have four (or more) guys in front of you have a problem . . . that's a long shot.
changed everybody last year
Everybody this year is like, 'Man, what's changed between last year and this year?' ... Nothing.
behind close handbook pulled tried
At the end, I'd get behind Kurt, I'd get close to him. I tried everything. I pulled out the whole handbook and I couldn't really do a lot with him.
