belt coming definitely few gears good miles pit ready start work
I definitely have to work on a few things -- my restarts, going through the gears and coming in and out of pit road. We now have 200 miles under our belt that we never had before. It was a good start and I am ready to do it again.
beats best father feeling
I think it beats them all. This is the best feeling a father can have.
bottled bottom everybody few good hit turns work wrong
I had a pretty good car, ... I got a little bottled up in Turns 1 and 2 a few times, but I think everybody was getting up there and getting tight. If you hit it wrong it would wad you up a little bit. Then I got to where I could work the bottom in Turns 3 and 4 and I had two grooves to work when we got to lapped cars. I had a pretty good way to go then.
knocked top trapped
I'm all right. It knocked the top down and I got trapped in the car. That's about it.
cars run save tires trying
I was just trying to save tires and run so easy, ... I didn't want to get to lapped cars because I didn't know what I'd do with them.
fun good groove move
It was a good racetrack, a fun racetrack. You could move around on it. There was more than one groove on it.
bottom caught everybody good running stuff turns
I caught the bottom there in Turns 1 and 2 and was running pretty good when everybody was slinging that stuff off of the bottom,
catch danny found gone late looked loose low rubber running saw tried turns until
I found the rubber first down in Turns 1 and 2, ... I searched around for it in Turns 3 and 4, I just didn't go down low enough. It looked blacker right in the middle, so I tried it there. I was still loose there so I started running the top. I just didn't go down low enough to catch it. If I would have gone down there I would have been all right. I didn't catch it until I saw Danny go by and it was too late then.
coming drafting eight everybody gave laps lead mistake practice proved room strong today worked worried
We were really strong today and I think we proved that when I made a mistake coming out of the pits and had to go to the back of the lead lap. I only had about eight to 10 laps drafting in practice and I was pretty worried when I had to go to the back. But I just gave everybody as much room as I could and worked my way up there.
good home run terrible
We used to run a lot of them back home when I first started, ... I can run terrible on them or I can run good on them.
