I came out of the pits first and Kasey Kahne was up there on two tires and Kurt came up behind me, so I just passed Kasey first and then Kurt caught and passed me,

Our tires just weren't any good at the end. I messed up on that restart and Kyle got me, and that ended up costing me the race.

Well, he did what he had to do. Whatever Kurt feels good about tonight. I wouldn't have done that to him. I would have passed him the right way, or I wouldn't have passed him.

He [Stewart ] is out here a week ago, making ridiculous statements, getting everyone all upset because he says we are going to kill someone. Then he comes out here and does that kind of stuff all day. Was it intentional ? It looked that way to me.

I'm real disappointed because the crew did a top-notch job and I kinda let them down in the last corner. I did everything I could, Jimmie just did a better job than I did.

I was lucky enough to stay there. The last lap was definitely exciting. They do hit each other hard.
