aware coming constantly difficult fact happen nowhere quickly repeat success thrown tough towards track wall
Dover is a tough track to repeat success on. It's so fast. Just the fact that the track is concrete, and you are constantly being thrown towards the wall coming out of the corners, makes this a difficult track for everyone. You have to be aware of everything going on, because things happen quickly and sometimes there's just nowhere to go.
bad good great hard run tight today track
We just had one run today where we got off, we got really tight all of a sudden. Once we got back there in bad track position, it just really killed us because it was really hard to pass. It was a great day for our Chevrolet. We were good all day, just that one run got us back a little bit.
great next practice race
First off, it's a great way to get some race practice in before qualifying and the big one the next weekend,

Right now the main focus is on getting off to a good start. That obviously has to be addressed at some point during the season, but I'm pretty much staying firm on the April date, myself and Richard.

benefits happen months overnight reap wants year
Everyone wants to perform. It's just that there are a lot of things going on that are not going to happen overnight at RCR. They are going to take 6-8 months to a year to reap the benefits of it.
bit coming good luck
We feel really good coming in here, but you still have to have a little bit of luck.
aggressive aggressor forefront good happen instead middle somebody trying
You go in there trying to be aggressive and trying to be the one who makes something happen instead of being in the middle of somebody else's mess. You have to try and be at the forefront of what's going on. Usually the aggressor comes out at the good end.
bad cars couple definitely good harder helping knocking lead luck pit points racing shape shoot side stay stops stretch
We're digging, and Matt's having some bad luck. If we keep knocking the lead off 80 or 100 points at a time, we're going to be in good shape in a couple of weeks. Right now, we're just going out and doing everything we can every week. Our cars are better, our pit stops more consistent, and that is helping everything come together. Down the stretch here, we're definitely racing a little harder because we've got something to shoot for. We just need luck to stay on our side and we'll see how things play out.
