cities city drivers exhausting group mexico since three time today visit work
It has been a long time since Mexico City and we had a group of drivers together. We did a lot of work today and it was pretty exhausting but when you visit three cities in a day you have to know you're going to work hard.
afford capitalize either front seems team time
We need to be in front of him to capitalize on it. It seems that every time either myself or someone from another team seem to give it to him. We can't afford to do that any more.
balance car fast found hopefully improving lost playing session strong time tomorrow track
We are playing some catch-up with the car because we lost track time yesterday. We just haven't found the balance we need to be fast here yet. We have another warm-up session in the morning, so hopefully we can keep improving tomorrow and be strong in the race.
chart move record shooting tie time
I would really like to tie Little Al, that is something I am shooting for, ... Plus, any time I can move up the chart for another record is neat.
good nascar time timing watch
It was very frustrating to watch him because I know he can do better than what he did. But in NASCAR it's so, so competitive. You've got to be in a good car, you've got to do it at the right time and I think the timing was off for him.
attack bottom capitalize chance line maximum races says time win
The bottom line is that I have to win races to have a chance to win the championship. Sebastien says he has to be conservative from here on out and not make any mistakes, so we have to be on maximum attack all the time to capitalize on that.
cars crew cup drive event giving greatest guys highly job opportunity ready respect richard series takes thank time week
I have the greatest respect for the guys that drive Cup cars week in and week out. It takes a lot of preparation to be ready for a highly competitive event like the Nextel Cup Series and we just didn't have the time to do the job right. I want to thank Richard for giving me this opportunity and the crew guys at the test for all of their effort.
age-and-aging change five good happen left maybe richard stepped talked teams time
I figure, at my age, I still have three, four, maybe five years in (Champ Car) left in me, but it could be the right time to make a change and I want to take a good look at it. I've talked with some other teams over there (in NASCAR), but Richard Childress is the only one who has stepped up and made something happen at this point.
beat car decided fresh great knew lap morning needed ready saw step time
It wasn't really our plan. Obviously, I was in the car ready to go and when we saw Sebastien went, we just decided let's go out and go head-to-head, you know one-to-one, see if we can beat him. Sebastien did a great lap this morning on fresh tires, so we knew that we needed to step it up and the time to do it was while he was on the track.
corners course fun nice road time track tracks
This is our first time at this track and let me tell you, it's one of the most fun tracks I've ever driven. It's got a nice combination of slow-, medium- and high-speed corners, with one of the quickest road course corners anywhere.
car champ chat creating dream enjoyed experience face family great huge kid maker smile spend team terry thank time together
I really enjoyed having Nathan and his family as our guests. We got to spend some time together and chat for a while. Nathan had a huge smile on his face the whole time, he is a great kid and a huge Champ Car fan! I would really like to thank The Dream Maker and Terry Randal for creating such an unforgettable experience for Nathan, the Forsythe Team and myself.
amazed chose cream drivers guys last list quality run strong
I was amazed with the quality of drivers in last year's field, and there are going to be even more this year. The list is very strong - a lot of drivers that are just the cream of the crop. I'm here to win. That's why I chose to run with these guys and with this team.
ballpark car definitely far happy overall progress question race together
I think we are definitely getting there with the car. We still have some progress to make with our race set-up, but there is no question we are right in the ballpark with the car as far as overall speed. I am really happy working with this team, and so far everything has gelled together really well.
biggest glad guys people problems tried
People are glad to see me come and try this, but I think one of the biggest problems I have is a lot of the open-wheel guys who have tried to do it have been unsuccessful.
