So there is going to be that balance of understanding how to get the best out of the car that day, whether it's 15th or even if I have a shot at a top 10, protecting that car so we can bring it back when we have to.
We're independent teams, but we want to beat each other. Unfortunately, we were a little too loose in cool air and we just couldn't get a handle on it.
What we do is just race hard on the track every week. That's the way I'd like it to be documented, and if we watch the tape, we'll see that the No. 48 swerved into us first and I know that, before even watching the tape.
There's steps that I've taken already, and each week, talking with the sports psychologist on a routine basis and working with the different programs that we're going through. This is all stuff that you can say you're going to make a difference, but I'm putting it into action.
I feel comfortable around every driver out there and each driver is in charge of their own car, but you feel very secure racing the competition out there.
