There are a lot of lessons that you learn, and you have to learn them quickly if you want to be competitive at this top level.

You really don't put a value on your first win, it is priceless no matter where you are.

When Jimmie Johnson goes out early and finishes 35th, as he did Sunday, he can look at the cameras, lament about it being a tough day, and then say, 'We'll just try to get them next week at Darlington'.

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

I never did any of things I was accused of. It was a total fabrication.

That's what I try to do each and every week is give my best effort and not give up, no matter what comes at us.

Each driver has their own identity and from one week to another, normally it stays the same.
