awesome believe cup driven excited glad means number start zero
I'm really excited about getting my 50th start. I read that the other day, and I can't believe that I will have driven 50 Nextel Cup races; I didn't ever think I'd get to drive one. It's just awesome and it means the world to me. I am really glad to be a part of the sport at this level. Hopefully, there is another zero after that start number before I quit.

If I only had 10 more laps to drive in my career, I'd want do them at Darlington.

He's totally consumed by racing, ... It's a passion. Everybody who succeeds highly is driven by what they're involved in, whether it's artists, writers, athletes or whatever.
along car drivers flying fun machines neat night pinch race together
I think race car drivers and airplanes go together pretty well. They're just neat machines and I've always thought about being a pilot. So I'm having fun with that. I have to pinch myself when I'm flying along at night in my own airplane, going to a race somewhere.

I'm going to be a Busch driver or a Cup driver one day.

I'm looking forward to racing at Pevely. I think there are several other Cup drivers going like Dave Blaney and Casey Mears so I'm sure we'll have a lot of fun putting on a great show for the fans and at the same time raising money for charity.
crown drivers greatest produced rich series silver
The Silver Crown Series has produced some of the greatest drivers and they have a really rich history.
driver fans format good
If you can get the fans into it, and the only driver who doesn't like it is the (points) leader, then you've got a pretty good deal. I'd like to see them use the same format (in the Busch Series.)

Atlanta Motor Speedway couldn't come at a better time for our team. We've run three races so far and we've run terribly at two of them. We need Atlanta. We need to come here and run well.

It's just a fun place to go, and I plan to enjoy a couple days of mountain biking from sunrise to sunset.

I don't feel any pressure, ... If anything, I might be having a little too much fun. Nobody expected us to be here; nobody expected us to win the championship.

This is was my first race with a new crew chief. I think we're going to win a lot of races.
believe best brad crew cross great house last length opinions talked
I talked to Brad at pretty great length last night. Brad and I have never had a cross word. I was over at his house with the whole crew the other night. I believe it was just differing opinions over the best way to do things at the shop.
