I think a lot of people look at me as the favorite here, ... I kinda feel that when I come into this track. I've got a little extra step in my stride when I come into this track because I've been so successful here in the past. |
I think by the end of the year, he'd have a lot of knowledge. He'd be up on the wheel and ready to go then. |
I think I make Steve a little nervous sometimes, so I'm going to be comfortable sitting in Homestead watching his race, off and on. |
I think Larry is one of the most wonderful crew chiefs I've ever had in my life, |
I told him to calm down, ... Don’t try to overdrive it cause he’s bad at doing that. |
I told the guys, 'Let's not get crazy right now. We've got a year and a half to make that decision.' We'll look at some guys out there and see what we can do. There's been absolutely no decision made on any driver at all. |
I want to go out on top, and above all I want to spend a lot of time with Patti and the kids, and I don't want to be some invalid or hurt and killed because of something that went wrong. |
I wanted to get out of the car and whip his rear end. The kid needs to calm down a little bit. ... He's really frustrated for some reason. |
I was really impressed with the brakes. They could stop on a dime. The acceleration was incredible. But the biggest surprise to me was how you go out and get such great speed, and as you turn down off the back straightaway, I can't believe how hard the wheel gets going into turn 10. As you arc off into there, the steering wheel's locked up. It's amazing. |
I was really impressed with the brakes. They could stop on a dime. The acceleration was incredible. These are incredible hot rods. |
I went up to pass a lapped car and when I got up to pass him he was on the outside and he came over, ... When he came over he clipped my left front fender and I had to jump out of the gas and when I jumped out of the gas I got hit in the rear end. |
I'd rather win one, ... It would sound a heck of a lot better. |
I'll tell you, I never could have reported on this sport the way it needs to be reported without getting to drive this car. |
I'm driving better than I have in a long, long time, ... so it does make you think twice. But on the other hand, I've made the right decision. I want to go out on the top of my game, and I'm doing that right now. |
I'm glad it's coming down to these style tracks, |
