I'm one of the anomalies.

I'm really looking forward to my first Cup start. I've been waiting for this opportunity for a long time. Your first start in the Cup series is something you dream of your whole life. The possibilities from this point forward are endless, and I can't wait to see what happens from here.

I'm really pleased to be out here. It's been a long time since I've been behind the wheel of a sports car, and I've never been behind the wheel of a Daytona Prototype. I'm really appreciative of Eddie's call. I'm excited to turn some laps and hopefully I'll be here at Daytona in January.

It's been extremely exhilarating and gratifying to see how many people care about me and support me.

My voice mail is full right now and I've been pulled in so many directions that I really haven't had time to take it all in.

It's going to take a while before you see a lot of African American drivers out there, but one day it will happen.

It's overwhelming and unbelievable that this day has finally approached. It's the culmination of a long, hard, difficult road from which I've never strayed.

It's overwhelming. I was hopeful my prayers and dreams would be answered, and they have been. I'm hoping this will open a lot of eyes and a few more doors in corporate America. I'm relieved. I just can't wait for Sunday.

It's overwhelming. It's the culmination of a very long dream. This night means a lot to me.
