I think that we could be a threat to challenge everybody with the way everybody is running now.

This team really has a lot of momentum right now. We've been running well, posting some good finishes and, of course, are coming off of our first win of the season.

He [Stewart ] is out here a week ago, making ridiculous statements, getting everyone all upset because he says we are going to kill someone. Then he comes out here and does that kind of stuff all day. Was it intentional ? It looked that way to me.

I'm real disappointed because the crew did a top-notch job and I kinda let them down in the last corner. I did everything I could, Jimmie just did a better job than I did.

I was lucky enough to stay there. The last lap was definitely exciting. They do hit each other hard.

All five of us are trying to race for the championship. It's silly to help anyone when you're going for it yourself. When Kurt went ahead, he had the better car. We didn't play it conservative. He just had the better car tonight.
