A win in Chevy's final race would be unbelievable, ... I'm almost in tears that Chevy is going from the series with all the horsepower we've got. I think Chevy is now on par with the Honda on the ovals. |

I am extremely excited to be a part of Vision Racing. Tony George and Ed Carpenter have built a solid foundation and the team is moving in the right direction. I have my engineer, David Cripps, with me and we have a solid working relationship. The time that I have had in the off-season with Larry Curry has been encouraging. He is incredibly motivated to win races, and that is what I am looking forward to doing, winning races. |
I know if I could haven been up with the leaders, we could have passed them. But I couldn't catch back up to the lead guys. |
I spoke to my dad on my birthday and his advice was to go out and enjoy myself. |
I think everything is in the right direction. We've all got the same goal, and that's to win races. I think if we achieve that, and hopefully we can achieve that this year, we can put together a productive team and carry on for years to come. |
I thought he must be conserving fuel (in the first segment) and then he pitted (only) one lap before me. I knew at that stage he was going to be pretty tough to beat. |
I wanted to win so badly this weekend or Panther (Racing) and the guys at Chevrolet, ... I was able to lead some laps and it's always great to see that Pennzoil car out front, but winning is what's important. |

Right turn equals happy. I think the diversity will help bring in new fans and other drivers and teams to the IRL. I grew up road racing all over the world and I am really looking forward to getting back to my roots. |
She's usually more trouble when she's ahead of me. She should be fine. She took out two of our cars. A little rookie mistake had a big consequence. But I've got no problem racing with her. |

The most competitive racing may have been between Tony and Dan. I'm amazed they speak to each other afterwards. |
This is a big race for me, |
We're not sure what happened. I had a decent first lap, but I think going into the second lap, we maybe ran out of fuel. We'll go back and have a look at the data. I'm sure it won't affect us too much for tomorrow in the race for sure. This is a good track, and the package we have in our Pennzoil Chevy should show well here, so we'll see. |
