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.

I'm having so much fun, it's hard to explain it, ... They just keep giving me great cars with great engines.
awesome bad charlotte close earlier fast finish five focusing good great home hopefully luck plans race run season shake showing surface team top track work
It will be great to be back in Charlotte this weekend. It's always good to race close to home. We had a disappointing race there earlier this season and we know that we can run well there. They have a new surface on the track and that will make the track very fast and I like fast. That will be awesome and work to our advantage. The team plans on focusing on a top five finish and hopefully shake off some of this bad luck we have been experiencing. We have a great team and we plan on showing that at Lowe's.

Running both helps me a ton. I can't stand to sit around and watch other people race. Ford briefed us the other day and told us a lot of exciting news about the Fusion, so that should be a great car to run. I'm ready to go racing.

cars contention couple fast flat focus front great hampshire improving lap last learned race reason run team time
I've learned a lot about New Hampshire over the last couple of races, ... It's flat and fast and I think I'm improving with every lap that I run there.We accomplished making the 'Chase' but now it's time to focus on going after the championship. We have a great team and great race cars so if we can run consistently up front I don't think there's any reason why we couldn't be in contention for the big prize.

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.
