[? 3:46 p.m. -- TNT's Benny Parsons talking with Michael Waltrip:] Robby [Gordon] just drove down in the corner like I wasn't even there, ... He drives like he's in the desert or something. |
A lot of people might look at it as a step back, but I certainly don't, |
I couldn't see where they were doing a whole lot of good to get me out, ... I was trying my best to explain to them what needed to happen. And what did they eventually do? They flipped it over and I got out. I hope that was a lesson learned. |
I drove a little tentative at a couple of points because it was loose, and then I was mad at myself because I thought maybe I should have tried a little harder. But then I saw Rusty crash and I thought maybe I did the right thing. |
I guess the last time I was in the Budweiser Shootout was 1992. I finished third in the first segment and eighth in the second. It's just a chance for your team to have some fun. It's a lot like the All-Star race where you get the chance to take the gloves off and fight for first. I'm real proud that I was able to win a pole last year and get my new NAPA team into the Shootout. And now we get to go out and try to win it. |
I guess you take the good with the bad, ... Daytona's just a tough race. |
I hope he visits with NASCAR and they explain to him that he needs to calm down. |
I just appreciate driving good cars. |
I know Texans are proud of their football teams. It's an honor for me to pay tribute to one of their best. |
I like the way Bill does business and he has created a strong organization, ... NAPA and I look forward to continuing our winning ways at Bill Davis Racing on the track, as well as extending our successful marketing efforts off the track. |

I never thought I would be a car owner in the Cup series. But then I thought, if I can plug into this, I can go race with these guys. ... Now I've got cars. I can race these people. |
I ran out of brains with about five to go and hit the wall a couple of times. I just saw Kurt and wanted to win so bad. I'd rather mess up trying. I did all I could. |
I was passing Jeremy and just got run over. I just can't understand it. |
