almost gotta guys hanging hit last loose quarter rear reason straight
You're 11th, but a lot of those guys gotta stop, so we're really more like fifth... I may have over-adjusted on that last stop, so I'll take the blame, but the reason you may be loose is because your right rear quarter panel is hanging almost straight out after the 20 (Stewart) hit you.
bad lead points week weekend
I don't feel like we're really in a catch-up mode, ... We had our bad week and even with that, we're only 23 points behind. We could take the points lead back this weekend very easily.
leading obviously race win
Obviously we wanted to win the race after leading that many laps.
accomplish anybody average awesome beat finish finishes good guys last proud ran second sixth team wise wish
I am really happy. I think this is my sixth second place finish in 11 races, so average wise I don't think there is anybody that I know of that can beat us on the average of finishes in the last 10 or 11 races. So we are pretty proud of what this team has been able to accomplish here. It's been an awesome day. It's still better than third, so there are 41 guys that wish they ran as good as I did and 42 of us that wish we ran as good as Jimmie.

I wouldn't feel comfortable riding a bus with cameras on it. It's like we don't have Big Brother as it is all around us.

Like I said after we won the Brickyard 400, ... if I die tomorrow, when I wake up, I've had a great life to this point.
cast doctors evaluation fitted great looks meet thorough until wear worse
I'm a little sore. The doctors were great and did a pretty thorough evaluation of me. They didn't find anything broken, but just to be sure, they fitted me with a cast that I'll wear until I meet with my doctors on Monday. It looks a lot worse than it is.
run thinking three turn
I had just run a 28.88, ... I'm thinking 'This is pretty good,' and then I get to turn three and I'm thinking 'This isn't good.'
driving growing hate life maybe might race realize scares starting
I hate to say I'm growing up because it scares me to think I might be but maybe I'm starting to realize there are more things to life than driving a race car.
attitude coming guys program spread taken
I feel like we've really taken our program to another level. It's not been because of me, it's been because of the two young guys coming in. Their attitude has kind of spread through the shop.
both goes hugging laughing matter team teammates view
We were both kind of laughing about it and hugging on each other about it, ... It doesn't matter what team he goes to, we still view each other as teammates -- even after the end of the year.
fence knock
We need to be a little better than we are. But I didn't knock the fence down.
example motivate today
Now, this year, all it's done is motivate us more. And today is an example of that.
car coolest eating fans gordon jeff lead night people practice remember top
The coolest thing is you have 160,000 fans that you can see all day long or all night long. I can remember (passing) Jeff Gordon for the lead and I could see the people cheering. The grandstands are right on top of you. When you get out of the car after practice or qualifying, you can see what the fans are eating and what they're drinking. You're that close.
