competing front great mark reason time wins
If you take a look at Mark Martin, he's been in the sport for a long time and at his age, the reason he's up front competing for wins and championships like he does is because he's in great shape,
break good hard last race team wins
Like I said, we're only off a bit, ... But it's so hard to break through that last bit. The No. 24 team has always been really good at it with all the championships and race wins he's had.
tough wind
The wind was really swirling. It was tough at times.
cars choose five nobody race says tear win
The thing I don't like, ... is the five Roush cars can go on a tear and nobody says anything, then we go out and win a race and so we've got to be cheating. It does get frustrating, but I choose to take it as a compliment.
heading momentum
I think we're getting some momentum back and heading in the right direction.
equipment filling number people somebody
I was filling in for the 25 ... I'm not the only one that's been in somebody else's equipment or with somebody else's number on the side. There's been a lot of people doing it. It's just kind of how it is.

He will be back after just a couple of weeks at home.
club encourage generation gets great next support tremendous yacht
He is tremendous with these young people. He gets great participation. He really has the kids' respect. From a yacht club standpoint, we like to support things that are boat-related to encourage the next generation of boaters.
chad home kicking tv
I know right now that Chad is probably kicking his TV in back home (in Charlotte, N.C.).
crazy drive home imagine technology ways
He is at home going crazy over this and I would imagine he will come back much more conservative. In some ways I am disappointed because he has always been one to drive technology in our sport.
cash chances good since
I just want to be a champion. I feel like I've had some really good chances that we didn't cash in on. I want to be a champion. It's my life. It's everything I've done since I was 5 or 6 years old.
solid team
It was just a real solid day for the Lowe's team today,
carrying coming great run second
I'm carrying a lot of momentum. Considering the circumstances, coming out of here in second (in the race) is a great run for the team.
concerns drew fishy legal looked perfectly
I know it looked fishy and drew a lot of concerns in everyone's eyes. How can something be perfectly legal and then it's not allowed?
