Calling two tires there under green, that was a pretty bold move, ... I'm just happy to see out sport is so equal, to see the 12 and the 20 race for position, and me and the 17, after 300 laps, to race for position like that is pretty incredible.
I'd like to leave here with a 30 point lead in the standings, ... This is a big race for us. With Talladega coming up next, you never know what can happen there. So we need a strong run, and I think we'll have one.
It would have been a different race if we could have pitted for tires with 16 laps to go, but that just didn't happen,
It kind of gets in your head about how you're going to end up after this race, ... I don't think we're as good as we were here last time. ... We'll do our best, that's all we can do - and not get down about how we run here. If it is a 15th-place finish, we go on to Dover or wherever else. We might end up with a top-five car, but you never know until the whole race starts.
I really enjoy running the Busch car. I have a lot of fun with it, and the more seat time I can get, the better. I hate it when there is a race going on and I'm not out there in it.
Just 10 points a race isn't going to do it, and what are the chances of me finishing second for the next six races? We can only do as good as we can do and can't really worry about the outcome of the 20.
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.
I don't really want to win races like that. That doesn't take a whole bunch of talent to knock a guy out of the way. Racing tight is one thing, but to get a run in the middle of the corner and get the guy's bumper all at once - it is what it is.
Of course I watch the Panthers, but I want the Seahawks to win the race. See, I'm thinking about racing.
It was pretty incredible to race a guy like that for the win, it was pretty neat,
His car was similar to mine when he won Atlanta versus me finishing third, and it was just who was in front. It was merely track position at the end of the race, so he's got the ability to drive the race cars.
This is what we need to do. It's championship form right here. We wanted to win, but we came here and led a lot of laps and ran real strong and finished second. It just goes to show how solid this race team is.
It's frustrating. It kind of drains you, but I've got to be optimistic about our season. It's unfortunate because this is how we make our living, too. It's a big payday, big PR to come and win a race like California Speedway and lots of points on the line.
I'm kind of (working) off what I did last year, winning those five races at the beginning of the season, and kind of going toward what we learned at the end of the season. It seems to be working.
