Famous Quotes and Proverbs

«New Hampshire is key to getting a good start,»

«Last year we saw (Tony) Stewart have trouble as well as (Jeremy) Mayfield and they never seemed to rebound after that, ... It's just the pace. In a lot of ways it's like a golf tournament. If you start off and you're four- or five-under and the other guys are waffling around with a bogey and a par, they're not gonna catch you. It's up to the leader to make those mistakes and we did have a big mistake at Atlanta with the motor blowing up. That took away our solid advantage, so when you have a bad race early on it's just that much more difficult to overcome later on.»

«If you think I'm good, wait until you see my little brother, ... He's an even better race car driver than I am.»

«I said it earlier this year, I think you can have one 'mulligan' (and still win the championship). But this has been two for (Kurt) Busch, I don't think he can still win the championship.»

«If you're running in the top-five during the race, usually you're single file, not three-wide pack, that's something you try to position yourself for. If you're stuck in the middle there's not much you can do. You don't want to get caught up in a wreck, so you have to decide if you want to go forward or if you want to hang out in the back and wait for a pit stop to jumble up the field. Qualifying is important, but, if you qualify up front, you can get shuffled to the back if you get into the wrong draft. We'll see how it shakes up. We have a good car. It's the car we ran seventh here earlier this year so I'm excited to bring it back.»

«I believe they're more behind me now than we were this time last year, knowing that this is a unique opportunity -- A, to defend our championship and, B, to get the most out of 2005,»

«I can just feel the team has a stronger intensity level. All of us went out to the start-finish line at Richmond and kissed that start-finish line and kissed that race track . . . We all felt very complete by that win and now we want some more.»

«was just rolling through the night worried about which tire was going to blow out ? the right front or right rear.»
