If they had the tire situation totally worked out, we wouldn't have to use the small fuel cells. I am concerned because I crashed hard there last year and I definitely don't want to do that again. The place is really fast and you don't want to have any problems. The most important thing is being safe.
It's definitely had an effect today. I mean, we're making changes on the car and we go back out and make another run and it's slower. So it's like it should have been faster, but it's slower, so it's really hard right now.
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.
They're going to be very hard to beat,
Just had to dig, fight real hard to get back, to get past all those cars. Once I got there, my tires were used up,
Our guys are working like we're behind the competition right now. That's how hard they're working to try and make our cars better and better and better.
He's a tough customer. He runs really well. He's a smart race car driver. He thinks. He executes. They're going to be very hard to beat.
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.
I could've pushed him out of the way, but that's not the way I want to get wins. He was protecting the bottom. His car was really slow. We were way faster than he was, and it's just tough. This place is hard to pass. Protecting the bottom - that's what you've got to do here in Bristol.
We just missed that win by a little bit, ... What we needed to do was get a good top 10 and that's what we did. I think we had the right strategy. I was gambling on a caution flag. If the caution would have come out, we would have had four skins and been able to put it to them.
We weren't going to catch them without a caution flag. We had to stay out because we had used up all of our sets of tires.
We weren't going to catch them without a caution flag.
We were pretty confident coming I here and we're still confident that we'll be able to make our way towards the front, ... It just depends on what the 20 does. If he passes all his stuff and nothing happens, it's tough when you only two spots in front of him to gain any points.
