«For the first time in my career, I'm looking forward to going to Talladega, ... If we can qualify well again and stay up front all day, the racing is actually fun.»

«We just lost track position there for a while, ... When you're restarting 20th or 26th, or whatever it was there, it just makes it really difficult to pass. Luckily (the caution) came out at the right time for us, when we were getting ready to pit. We gained a lot of track position; got ourselves in the top five and obviously, we held our own there at that point.»

«He was one of NASCAR's greatest drivers and I admire him,»

«[NASCAR was quick to defend its procedures -- and they actually make a pretty good point about not dispatching crews while cars are on the track. But this is as good a time as any to get into an issue that comes up at least once a summer: having a dedicated, traveling medical and safety crew. Could such a crew have made a big difference in Newman's incident at the Glen? Who knows? But would they have made things worse? No way.] Once the team got there, they didn't have a clue what to do. I'm laying in the car, not knowing if fuel is spilling out of it, ... They asked me if the power was off. I'm trying to tell them they need to hold the car so I can get out. Communication was not there, and it needs to be there. I'm not trying to shoot down the safety crew. I just want it to be so we can communicate better and they can understand what they're doing. If there's not going to be a team that travels with NASCAR, then there needs to be better communication with the teams that are at the specific racetracks. That's all I'm saying.»

«That's another top ten and that was good, ... We've had five top-10's in six Chase races now, but it's going to take some wins and top fives in these final four races.»

«We've had five top-10s in six chase races ... but it's going to take some wins and top-fives in these final four.»

«It was a good effort for the Alltel Dodge,»

«Something broke in the right front, ... I'm not sure what it was. It was a great effort for our Alltel Dodge guys. We picked up speed, and we're doing the right things. Something just happened, and I don't know what it was. That's part of it. We've struggled this year. This is a good opportunity to prove that we can do better.»
