Target is to run as good as you can every week. Everything else kind of takes cares of itself. We just go out there and race as hard as we can, take the car we got, do the best we can with it every week. |
That is what they pay us the big money for. |
That was a fun race, man. |
That's life. You've got to deal with it, good and bad. We'll be all right. I mean, if we make the chase, we make it. If we don't, we don't. |
The 48 (Johnson) ran into the 38 (Sadler) and I ran into them. That was an accident and accidents happen. We're all together so it's hard to miss something when you're going so fast. You can turn left, but the car is still going straight. It's just frustrating. |
The only thing that sucks worse than a bad finish is a bad finish with a fast racecar. |

The tires are wearing out pretty fast. Everybody has the same tires, so everybody is dealing with the same problem. |
The track was a lot faster and it had a lot more grip. I like it, it was real smooth and they did a great job. |
They can change the bumpers and stuff and we'll still run into each other because that's what we do. |
They defend everything we believe in. It's very important that the troops know that all Americans support them. And although their job may be difficult, they've got a lot of people behind them. |
This test right here is very important, very key for our team, not only just for this race (March 12 at Las Vegas), but for a lot of tracks. We'll need to learn as much as we possibly can, not only for Las Vegas, but for other tracks that are similar. |
This was a good start for our team. |
Tony and I are a good combination. And we're going to try to work toward next year. These next nine races are real important and we're going to try to build on that. |
We are going to win six or seven races and be in the top three in the Chase. If we don't win the championship, it won't be by much. |
