We're qualifying pretty good this year. It's just a matter of time before we get the rhythm back going. I am looking at the points already. I know we're only like 40 or something like that out of the top 10. [Actually, it's 51 points.] Now I've got to get back up there and get myself up to the front.

I want to go out on top, and above all I want to spend a lot of time with Patti and the kids, and I don't want to be some invalid or hurt and killed because of something that went wrong.

When I decided to retire, I decided I couldn't stand it if I went out a loser,

We hit 228 [mph] at the end of the straightaway and averaged 221 [mph] for that overall lap segment,

We certainly want to go out on top of our game at Bristol with a strong run and I think we're primed to come in there and do just that. The fact is that we had a car that should have won the spring race at Bristol and looked like we were certainly headed that way until we had a right-front tire go down.
