We hadn't been that good. I hadn't been real comfortable in the car and we didn't leave ourselves enough time to switch to qualifying trim and just was kind of disorganized and didn't get a good fast lap in (during practice).
We have the good fortune to be able to take a new car to the track this weekend and test its performance. Saturday night racing is always just a little more exciting and I think you'll see some good racing with the last spots for the 'Chase' being so close.
You know what, our whole team feels really, really good about last week -- like we won almost. Spirits are high because the fact is that we have good race cars and we're running very well. That's the key.
We'd love to sweep California. I'd love to get back in Victory Lane; I don't care where it's at. We're not taking the same car we won with back to California. We're taking a better car, a car we've won a lot of races in and we feel like we're gonna be a threat to win at California again.
We definitely had the faster car. I just didn't want to see those cautions in the end. I could have got Ryan so easily in the end.
Until about 20 (laps) to go, and then everybody is going to be racing for that million and a half dollars.
We're in a race car three days a week which also keeps us in shape. You know, that's like working out... .
When your name gets put in a sentence with Jeff Gordon, that's a bid deal. I have a lot of respect for Jeff Gordon.
We wanted to win here tonight, ... Kyle (Busch) got a great restart, great job by those guys tonight. They deserve it. Just a great job by my guys in the pit. We adjusted the heck out of that racecar tonight.
I enjoy driving the cars and I like the Ford family. Ford was one of the bigger influences of why I stayed at Roush. I wanted to keep driving a Ford because I like the Fords.
He's a tough customer. He runs really well. He's a smart race car driver. He thinks. He executes. They're going to be very hard to beat.
The paint scheme is awesome, ... The guys in the shop were pretty excited about it and that says a lot. We won last year's race in a special paint scheme with the 'Flash' car, so it would be pretty cool get a win this year in the 'PRISM' car.
If they had the tire situation totally worked out, we wouldn't have to use the small fuel cells. I am concerned because I crashed hard there last year and I definitely don't want to do that again. The place is really fast and you don't want to have any problems. The most important thing is being safe.
If this is the Cup race, that's the last lap and that's what going on, it's going to be a different outcome, I can tell you that.
