I hope we can do two in a row. It would be great to be able to start out like that.
The race is definitely a high-intensity race. You have to stay patient. I've got one win there, but many tough finishes. I hope we're able to stay out of trouble in the pits and put together a good finish.
We don't know what 2006 has in store. Right now, it's time for this team to shine and hopefully back up our championship that we won last year.
I just wanted to tell (Riggs') crew chief that he started his car way too loose, ... so hopefully they don't hurt anybody else in the Chase.
Frankly, I hope it does. They've run it all year long. It's been a matter of time before things were revealed.
I know that getting a career started this late -- 27 years old -- in open-wheel isn't the best thing to do. But if we dabbled here and there, you should definitely look out for Kurt Busch having some fun.
I knew from the beginning he could be a strong racer, a force to be reckoned with. He's getting more and more comfortable.
It's something that's very special to win a championship. We want to do something even more special -- win a back-to-back championship. We're definitely putting the pressure on ourselves to do it.
It's something I'll remember forever, racing Mark Martin for the IROC win. It was one of those great battles, where I knew if I couldn't hit him, knew I couldn't touch him, and I wanted to race him clean.
Everybody wants to win Daytona. There's only one guy that's happy when we leave and that's the winner. California is really where the season starts.
After that, it will be a great race, in prime time Saturday night, for the fans that will be watching it here or the fans watching on East Coast television,
After the problem we had, I thought we were buried. It's very tough to come back to the front.
I'm glad that's behind me. I did learn some things through (the experience). The first thing is that speed should be saved for the racetrack.
I'm going to tip this Wiener, ... Hang on.
