clean decisions eight happen last lost mistakes racetrack start stay troubles weird year
We lost last year by eight points, and we had some troubles at the start of the Chase, ... This year, hopefully, we'll make the right decisions and not have any weird things happen to us, and I won't make any mistakes on the racetrack and stay clean throughout.

Man, before we hit the start of the race we had a flat tire. It was a really tough day for us.

It's not a good thing to come from the back, there's going to be a lot of risks that I'm going to have to take to get to the front. I'm going to have to be on my toes at the start of the race.

It seems to start right around Brickyard time.

We've got a shot at a meteoric start to the season. I've always run pretty well at California and Las Vegas.

We have to find some speed and turn things around. Thankfully, we had a strong start to the season, so this last month we really didn't have to race our way in. But we've got to find it in a hurry.
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.

I can't believe I'm saying this, but all of a sudden it looks like Minnesota is starting to look like Cincinnati, circa 1995,

The wind was really swirling. It was tough at times.
bit finally five four gas hit middle time tires tony trying
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.
