Roy and I have talked a lot about it already. He says he can't wait for a chance to make those strategic calls and I have a world of faith and trust in him. Roy and Matt have always worked great together and they both stay so cool under pressure.
Frankly, I hope it does. They've run it all year long. It's been a matter of time before things were revealed.
You know, it's just a matter of working through the pitfalls sometimes and working through the challenges that lie ahead.
You can still be a competitor and be well-rounded. You've got to have that edge on the track. It's just a matter of flipping a switch and becoming a good guy with your public image.
You really don't put a value on your first win, it is priceless no matter where you are.

We just missed the handle on it again. It was just way too loose off the corners.
We had (the car) in position late in the race and I thought we had a shot. You could just see it brewing. With 20 to go, it was going to get busy.
Race tracks have somewhat gone away from building charisma and building an identity. They all seem to look the same. Fans are going to get a new perspective when they come to Las Vegas Motor Speedway that's so much different from all the other tracks. That's what it's all about, putting a new face on it for the fans.
Believe it or not, when practice begins on Thursday morning at Texas Motor Speedway, that will be the first time I've ever even sat in a Grand National car.
Seeing Tony do it last year at Indy, I was envious. I said, 'I want to do that at Vegas.' It's a big race for me and my little brother, of course. I watched the track get built from the ground up.
Rusty is definitely very keen on what shocks you need to run at Bristol, the different adjustments. I'm going to use that knowledge as well as what I've had there in the past.
Don't just do it. You have to make an impact and tell them you learned some things and that you're going to make sure that doesn't happen again.
There's no more important test than Vegas. We've got quite a bit of guessing to get through the next part of the season, and that's why this test is very important.
