I'm not that worried about the whole top 125 thing, but it certainly would be nice to finish strong and get up in there, ... I played so poorly at the start of the year. I'm playing better, just not putting well. It makes it kind of hard to compete.

We have to start strong and finish strong. Once you get on top of somebody, you have to keep pounding them with what you've been doing.

It is not how you start; it's how you finish, ... I expect to make it a strong finish.

It's not where you start, it's where you finish. And we were definitely strong finishers.

It's nice to finish strong and end the season on a good note. It's nicer to be above .500 than below it. But .500 is mediocre. We want to be better than that.

We certainly want to go out on top of our game at Bristol with a strong run and I think we're primed to come in there and do just that. The fact is that we had a car that should have won the spring race at Bristol and looked like we were certainly headed that way until we had a right-front tire go down.
