Quoted in 'Johnson's streak does not diminish Yarborough's run'

said in The State:

We operated on our own ... Look at the standings now and there are three Rick Hendrick teams (Johnson, Mark Martin and Gordon) at the top, and they share information. More power to them; that's the way racing is these days. But it's not the same. It's like I told Jeff Gordon after he won his fifth Southern 500 (to equal Yarborough's record), he needed to win five more to match me because conditions are so much different.

Quoted in 'Either way, Hendrick set to make history this weekend'

Rick Hendrick said in NASCAR:

I would have to say this is probably as good as it gets ... You know, to have the three cars in the points where they are right now [Jeff Gordon, another Hendrick driver, is third behind Johnson and Martin], having the championship as owner going into Homestead already secured, we've won a lot of races ... this has got to be as good as any season we've ever had.
