We've got a new motorcycle this year and I've felt better on the bike each time I ride it. I know the results will come. We just have to keep working and stay consistent.

It was a tough track tonight. You really had to be on your game. I figured my line out in the whoops before these guys and I was just sticking to it. Something was telling me it was going to get ugly. At this point, I don't even care about the title. I know if I put myself in good positions like that these next two weekends then a title is possible.
