I was saying that in April, 'Don't lose sight of them,' ... The cars that are in front of us are great cars. For them to stumble, they're not going to do it to many times. If we don't make moves on our merits ... we can't really wait on them to stumble because those are cars that don't stumble.

We're basically 80 points out of first place and after these next three races, if we're to have a shot at the title, we need to cut that number in half.

So I got what I wanted. With six races left, if we've got a capable car, we've got plenty of time to catch up. If we don't have the car, there isn't much point talking about it.

We're less than 100 points out of first place going into Indy and that's where we're at right now. If we're a car that's capable of winning the championship, than we're in pretty good shape.

Sometimes it's been good, sometimes it's not been so good. I can't really say (why we've done so well in Memphis), I don't have a lot to justify why, kind of like our run on Father's Day (five consecutive wins on Father's Day). It's one of those things that, for whatever reason, we have a setup that seems to work when we're there.

I'm proud and ecstatic and everything. This race is everything to anybody who drag races.

He's only seen me win live one other time. This is his win.

That race pays more than Indianapolis, so you'd have to say it's the biggest race of the year and the eight best cars in the class are the only ones to run in it, ... So yeah, it's a very prestigious race.
