You know, its just a matter of working through the pitfalls sometimes and working through the challenges that lie ahead.

You think I'm a pretty good race car driver? Wait until you see my brother. He's the best driver in the family.

I know where my priorities lie.

I've been fined probably more than any driver, and I've probably paid it out of my own pocket more than any driver.

There wouldn't be any way I could have jumped into Cup with the success I had without the truck series. I wish I had more time to spend there. There are so many things the truck teaches you about aerodynamics, the professional ranks of racing, and working with a professional team.

It was such a dramatic escalator that I was on. It was at 90 degrees. I was going straight up like a rocket ship into space. And I was thrown in with the sharks. They said sink or swim in this Cup deal.

This 51 Phoenix Racing team, I love them to death. They've got my back, I've got theirs.
