    I just want to get out of Kansas, to be honest with you ... It's been a long weekend for me. I thought we had a good car today and we started out a little tight. It got worse and worse, and [we] never could get a handle on it.

  1. It's just going to be like this. You're going to have to finish ahead of the rest of the Chase guys, you're going to have to beat them to win the race and the championship.

  2. We definitely made some big gains, but the swings don't come on days like today

  3. Oh my god, I'm sitting in the seat that Gordon sat in. That's awesome ... Can I take this home? I'm going to take this home.

  4. When you've won and run well, and Jimmie and Chad are always going to know they are under the microscope - that's (going to be) part of it ... We actually don't mind that. NASCAR is fair and if they want to check us every week, that's OK. I understand. I really do.

  5. They're doing real well ... They've really clicked together and the car is running [well]. He's just had some really bad luck. But I think they're gaining on it in a hurry and I'm really happy. I think by Charlotte we'll be ready to do something.

  6. It's just frustrating ... We had the bad start, we left the lugnut off on the one pit stop and lost a lap there. Then we pitted and lost a lap there, so we were two laps down all day. We had a fast enough car to finish in the top 12, I think.
