At the end, I'd get behind Kurt, I'd get close to him. I tried everything. I pulled out the whole handbook and I couldn't really do a lot with him.
Tony has a problem with running you into the fence the second he gets position. We were running side by side, and he started running me into the fence.
Tony has a problem with running guys into the fence as soon as he gets position. I don't know why he would try to run me in the fence.
We just missed that win by a little bit, ... What we needed to do was get a good top 10 and that's what we did. I think we had the right strategy. I was gambling on a caution flag. If the caution would have come out, we would have had four skins and been able to put it to them.
We weren't going to catch them without a caution flag. We had to stay out because we had used up all of our sets of tires.
We weren't going to catch them without a caution flag.
We were pretty confident coming I here and we're still confident that we'll be able to make our way towards the front, ... It just depends on what the 20 does. If he passes all his stuff and nothing happens, it's tough when you only two spots in front of him to gain any points.
There at the end, we were running down the 21 (Jeff Burton) and the 60 (Edwards). We passed the 39 (Newman) and were closing in on them pretty good. I felt like I would probably get to the 21 before the end of the race. I don't think I could get to the 60, but then the caution came out.
Let them have the attention, ... I believe we've got a great chance to win this thing. It could get real interesting.
I was going to pass him if I could, but I was real excited following him,
I was real nervous about coming down here, this is not our strong suit for sure. The car is driving really good, the car feels fast. I just have a good feeling about this race car, so I'm much happier now.
So I'm saying we're not out of it.
Of course I watch the Panthers, but I want the Seahawks to win the race. See, I'm thinking about racing.
We need a strong run to rebuild the momentum we have lost in the last few weeks. A win this week would be a great rebound from the points we lost last week, and a victory in Ford's backyard is always something we want.
