carry confidence drivers easier hard matter nice rookie setup somewhere track win
It has always had a nice kind of grip, which makes it easier for rookie drivers to come in and get comfortable, but the setup is still hard to find. I think when you win somewhere you always carry that confidence into that track no matter what happens.
key learn possibly race test tracks
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.
faster great smooth track
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.
bristol considered toughest track
I considered it a pretty big accomplishment personally, because for me Bristol is probably the toughest track on the circuit.
figured good guys pull run time tracks
I thought we were going to pull through and get one at Atlanta, one of the better tracks for me. But we do run good every time we come here. Some guys have this place figured out; we'll just have to go after them.

I think we're all right. I think we're going to start third and fifth. I don't know; the 38's on the pole, right?

It drove great all day. We bounced off a lot of things, and it just continued to drive great.

I sure hope he doesn't get the lucky dog with this.

It'd be fun if we could run farther apart, but that's not going to sell many tickets.

I think it is awesome - I think it is good for our sport. It is really entertaining for the fans and it is really entertaining for the other drivers. I hope it keeps going.
accident accidents car hard miss ran together turn
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.
