It is a great honor to be an ambassador for the Special Olympics. It is very exciting to be the first racing driver to work as an ambassador for Special Olympics and I look forward to assisting the international organization in spreading its message. Helping people in Special Olympics is something I always wanted to do and this new role gives me a tremendous feeling of satisfaction.

We have had a decent year, but we need that big finish to end the year right, ... I am anxious for the first win. I am not obsessing about it, but I am ready for it to happen so we can move on to the next challenge.

My goal coming into this season was to win my first race and I still haven't accomplished that, ... Our cars will be good at California and it would be a great way to finish the season with a victory. I think we'll be in the hunt right to the end.

I'm not sure where I'll be driving, I'd like to stay with Bobby, but I'm hoping for a good ride with somebody.
