clean decisions happen hopefully mistakes stay track weird
This year, hopefully we'll make the right decisions and not have any weird things happen to us and I wont make any mistakes on the track and stay clean throughout,
car changed rear track wearing
We were competitive at one point, ... I just feel like the car was abusive and we were wearing the right rear out. And then again, the track changed some more, or something changed and got away from us and we couldn't keep up with it.
blast complaints drove earlier fading five found four gas ground hit inside kept laps line outside passed short surprised three time track trying wheels worked
I was fading so I don't really have any complaints with the way that he raced me. I passed him two or three times earlier in the day and found another line and worked my way around the outside of him. I was a little surprised that he continually drove it in and kept trying to blast me in the center. I think he probably hit me for four or five laps and the time that he got by me, he really had my wheels off the ground and I couldn't get in the gas and he got inside of me and from there drove on and drove away from me. This is short track racing.
bad clean happy nice perform race track weekend
I'm very happy with everything (my team) got done on the race car, and it was a good, clean lap. ? It is nice to get back to the track and perform well after a bad weekend like we had a Bristol.
bad change deliver feels good mistake nice perform practice strong track weekend
It's nice to get back to the track and perform well after a bad weekend like we had at Bristol. We didn't change a thing. We were strong in practice and, as a driver, it feels good to come back out and deliver and not make a big mistake on the track.

We finished 16th, but it's not the end of the world. There are three to go and we'll just keep fighting.

We went back in the spring for the Advance Auto Parts 500, and all the emotions came back,
chatter guys worry
There are a lot of other guys to worry about, ... I'm not going to let all this chatter get us something to worry about.
alone anyone bump changes drafting game
We can't play the game of bump drafting like we do at other tracks. That alone changes the race. Here, you don't want anyone around you. At Daytona, you want everyone with you.
call consequences flirting job line living step
We're all flirting with that line and when you step over that line, it's NASCAR's job to call you out on it. And they called us out and we're living with the consequences from that.
