concerns drew fishy legal looked perfectly
I know it looked fishy and drew a lot of concerns in everyone's eyes. How can something be perfectly legal and then it's not allowed?
fourth leading mind sixth
I know in the back of my mind that we can be leading or in fourth or in sixth and it bounces around,
anybody hope
I hope it's us. If anybody can make it clean, they'll probably be the champion.
bump bumper care gotten knew plate timid tracks trouble trying
I have to admit, I was a little timid with it up there. I knew it was there and it was softer, but I am really trying not to bump draft. I've gotten myself into more trouble at plate tracks than I care to, so I'm just going to keep my bumper to myself.
car dominant job losing mistakes tear tony underneath won
I really feel this championship is about not losing it. Tony (Stewart) had the dominant car tonight. If it didn't get out from underneath him, he probably would have won the race, and it would be a different story. We've just got to do our job and not make any more mistakes - especially on my part - and not tear the car up or do anything stupid.
losing
I really feel this championship is about not losing it.
cars chief crew hard view
I kind of view it as jealously, and he doesn't have a crew chief in there working hard enough to make his cars as good.
cash chances good since
I just want to be a champion. I feel like I've had some really good chances that we didn't cash in on. I want to be a champion. It's my life. It's everything I've done since I was 5 or 6 years old.

incredible for us. A big gain is what we needed to do.

I had no idea how hectic this week would be. It's been great, but really exhausting.

I needed to see the video to really understand what took place.
carrying coming great run second
I'm carrying a lot of momentum. Considering the circumstances, coming out of here in second (in the race) is a great run for the team.
behind chances fan hate huge personally pinpoint problems reasons team testing understand work
I personally am not a huge fan of this new testing plan. I understand the reasons behind it, but I hate that if a team is in need, they can't go out and try to better themselves. If you're off, I don't really see a lot of chances where a team can pinpoint its problems and work through them.
couple finally four learn race three
After three or four years you finally learn how to race 400-mile races. The first couple of years you take too many chances.
