came chad dedication front frustrated last people respect results win year
I think last year at times it was really frustrating and people could see that. But we were frustrated because we weren't getting the results that we wanted. I'll always respect Chad for his dedication and that frustration that came up. He just wanted to win and be up front and win the championship.

With my four years in Cup so far, each year had . . . a different set of pressures. I'm looking forward to it this year. I don't anticipate it to be the same. It just continues to change and intensify each year. I just hope that all the lessons I've learned so far have taught me enough that I can get it done.

car cars contact potential track
Martinsville is a place where contact is going to come into play, and tempers will be high, ... It's a track where you can never get away from a lapped car or the cars you're racing, so the potential is there to have contact.
