I was running basically wide open, ... The truck was absolutely perfect.
knew looked mistake racing saw
Once I looked back and saw they were racing side-by-side, I knew all I had to do was not make a mistake and I'd be all right,
fourth lie row win
I'm not going to lie to you. It's disappointing not to win the fourth in a row and set the record.
best both finishes finishing good mike move race second tires twice
I'm not too disappointed with finishing second to Mike twice in a row. In both races, Mike just had 'fresher' tires at the end. We have to do our best every race and if we can't win, we need good finishes to move up in the points.
It was nerve-racking, but I'll take it. We were doing the right thing, making the right move.
carry crew hard momentum piece puzzle ran reason season
It's hard to carry that momentum over from one season to the next, very difficult. There's no one reason why we ran good. It's just about combinations - crew chief, driver, truck, crew - you've got to have every piece of the puzzle and we did. It just worked.
cup experience gain guys kid mediocre run series team ton
It used to be a series where a young kid with a mediocre team could come in and run 20th and gain a ton of experience and knowledge. Now there are 25 Cup guys out there, and these young guys can't get in the race.
again beat everybody gets good knew letting lucky messed mistake ted top truck
Everybody gets lucky once in a while. I really messed up letting Ted get by me. I wasn't going to get beat because of my own mistake again this year. I knew I had a good enough truck top get around him.
bottle
Right now, we've just got it going on, ... If we could bottle it, we could make millions.
class good great stay
I don't know. This is a great class, a lot of good drivers. I don't know what to expect. I just want to stay out of everyone's way and have a good time.
cup jimmy nobody racing typical wants
I was Spencered. That's typical Jimmy Spencer. That's why he's racing Trucks, and nobody wants him in the Cup series.
fastest hard hoping struggling time
I'm a little surprised. I was struggling earlier. It's hard not to make a mistake. I was hoping to at least back up my time from the first run, but we'll take it. We're here for fun, but if we're not the fastest we're mad.
finished great knew second
I finished second here before and I wasn't going to do it again. I knew I had a great truck.
loose mark martin outside somebody truck
There was no way I could let Mark Martin get outside of me on that restart. My truck was so loose when somebody was out there. When he went inside, I said, 'Have at it.' That was what we needed.
