I want to be 125 points ahead, like I should be, |
I was just getting tired of getting run into. |
I was just running around with a bunch of hacks out there. I was just getting tired of getting run into. |
I was pretty concerned obviously. When you go in the corner and smell the smoke and see the smoke inside the car, you know you've got a fender rub. You just don't know how severe it is. The bad part about it was there was nothing we could do about it at that point. So we were just kind of stuck with what we had. |
I was telling some photographers my dog is going to be really mad tonight, |
I was watching TV, and they were talking about the tribute to Dale Earnhardt. Five years from now we're probably going to have to do another tribute to another driver because we're going to kill somebody from Wednesday to Sunday. It could be me or Dale Jr. or anybody. |
I wasn't going to wreck him. A couple of times I had him in compromising positions and I let him go. I didn't want to win that way. Jimmie understands that's just short-track racing. There are a lot of guys who don't. ...When you have a guy who understands and doesn't whine and carry on and complain, that makes it more fun. |
I went out and bought $17,000 worth of exercise equipment for my house. |
I wish everybody could have the feelings that I have right now, |
I wish they were teeth so I could have them pulled. The only time they don't hurt is when I'm in the race car. |
I won't until Joe says so. He's had two of his Cup drivers upside down here this week. He's not going to be happy. |
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. |
I'd say this one was more exciting. Last year it was an isolated incident that made that one. Being three-wide, three-deep in the final five laps is, I think, a pretty exciting finish. |
I'll be honest, I didn't conserve fuel too well. |
I'll be honest, we haven't had much time off. The little bit of time we had off was the week of Christmas, and I got sick. In hindsight, it was actually pretty good. I spent Christmas Eve and Christmas Day by myself with my dog. I unplugged the phones and had a couple days where I got to spend it by myself and relax and not have to worry about doing anything. |
