TALK ABOUT YOUR RUN OUT THERE THIS EVENING, IT WAS PRETTY IMPRESSIVE.

«It was, surprisingly I’d say. I think we were about eighth in practice or something. I thought not the last run, the run before the car felt really good. I didn’t get all of it out of the car. I don’t know, when I came across the line, it was like I’m waiting for the guys to say ooh, P15 or something and it was P1. I asked them, ‘Are you serious or are you joking with me?’ I’m kind of happy I guess. We changed the car a lot. I know it’s kind of crazy because last week we ran so good but overall on the other tracks we haven’t really run as good as we need to in the big tracks. In the small tracks we run really well. We’re trying a little bit different approach on the car and it seems to be working.»

HOW LONG DID IT TAKE YOU TO GET OVER THE DISAPPOINTMENT OF LAST WEEK?

«A couple minutes. It’s kind of weird because I didn’t really want to talk to the media because I was just pissed off and when you’re angry you’ll say something

HOW WAS YOUR LAP? «It was a good lap. I got up to speed really well. I seem to get on the gas; really important, the straights are really important here. I got on the gas good but I wasn’t sure I rolled that good through the corners. But the amount of time you can spend wide open here makes a big difference. It’s great. Last week was a rough week for the team but to rebound at a place where we don’t run that well, it good. It’s nice.»

«Pocono wasn’t one of my favorite race tracks early on in my career but our equipment has improved so much over the years that a lot of our good results have come in places we use to struggle at. Earlier this year we had some handling issues but the guys made some good changes and things turned around for us. The way things have been going for us I just hope we can walk out of there with some solid results and not a wrecked race car.
