close everybody five next race shocked stress
I'm shocked just like everybody else just how close the championship race is and I think that over the next five it's only going to be more interesting, more aggressive, more stress and pressure, ... It's going to be right down to the very end, I think.
effects good lingering next race start
I think that one of the good things in our sport is that there's always next weekend. You could see some lingering effects at the start of the next race weekend, but it disappears.

best bother car deal follow gotten last next passed practice reason respect says somebody spending stood thinking time
For somebody who says it doesn't bother him, evidently it has. Indirectly, I guess, something's gotten to him, ... That's his deal and he's spending some time thinking about it. Last week, the reason we went out to follow him in practice was out of respect for him. He had the best car and we wanted to see how we stood up next to him. And we passed him.

There was a little bit (of contact) with Tony trying to get by me. One time in the middle of (turns) 3 and 4, I think he hit me four or five times and I couldn't get any gas because my tires were off the ground. That's when he finally got by me on the inside.

Quite an experience (this past week of media frenzy). It was the highlight of my career and hopefully I can experience it again some day.
cars choose five nobody race says tear win
The thing I don't like, ... is the five Roush cars can go on a tear and nobody says anything, then we go out and win a race and so we've got to be cheating. It does get frustrating, but I choose to take it as a compliment.

I've been aggressive before and made some mistakes that caused wrecks. Today I just wanted to sit and ride, and take care of things.

Curling doesn't make you fit, ... but you have to be fit to curl.
