(Finishing 11th) is very important to us, but our No. 1 goal, and it's going to start Sunday, is to get some wins,

Safety is the No. 1 issue for us. That's something that's come to the forefront, something that the drivers really want to work on. We want to make this sport as safe as we can, and NASCAR is working hand-in-hand with us to make sure we have that.

That was a pretty good run for us, ... To get a top-10 qualifying effort was a good feeling. We've got a lot to prove to a lot of people in the last 10 races and we can start that (today).

To come in here [Sunday] and run like we did and get the finish we did was great for all of us.

I think you're going to have a lot of cautions, ... and not all because of the racetrack, [but also] because the guys racing so close in the Chase right now don't want to give an inch.

All in all, I'm happy with the new Fusion in the draft. It doesn't get the aero tightness that we've had in the past. Ford has done a tremendous job in really giving us a great tool to work with. I can't wait to get in some racing conditions So far, so good; I give it an A.
