To win Oktoberfest is just awesome. I've been coming here since I was a little kid. Yeah, we had something we liked (in a set-up). The car handled awesome. The main thing I was thinking was to put cars down (a lap). We've had good cars all year. The last half of the year thing really picked up. The first half, we had pure bad luck.

I can't believe he came back from the problem he had, came back up through and won it at the end. That last caution that was Norris' break was what I didn't need. We needed that to go another 10, 12 laps, at least, so I could put him a lap down. Then maybe I could have had a shot at winning it.

The car just stuck on that second lap. I always love coming to Phoenix and this is the best car that I ever had here. I look forward to a great race.

I just glanced up in my mirror every now and then down the straightaway. First it started out as a little orange gar. Then it got to be a pretty big one.
