I had a lot of fun. It was kind of nice to take sort of a break from the spotlight (and) recharge your batteries. It wasn't that difficult of a season for me.

Working with Tony Jr. is going to be a lot of fun, there's a good, close bond there.

It'd be fun if we could run farther apart, but that's not going to sell many tickets.

Fame is a lot of fun. Fame gets you to boxing matches, football games and cool stuff.

'The thing about Bristol is you can be really good but still caught up in a wreck. That's probably the main concern. Even if you're the leader, it's hard to miss wrecks sometimes because of all the lapped traffic. That's just Bristol. You can't take a break at any time. The moment you think you're doing good, it'll jump up and deal you a nasty blow.

Working with Tony Jr.'s going to be a lot of run. We've already tested with each other, and we've got a good mentality ... This is a new start. We've always been close, but the working relationship is definitely improved.
