I know the 24 came down and kind of gave me a door slam down the backstretch.

There at the end, we were running down the 21 (Jeff Burton) and the 60 (Edwards). We passed the 39 (Newman) and were closing in on them pretty good. I felt like I would probably get to the 21 before the end of the race. I don't think I could get to the 60, but then the caution came out.

We wanted to be up in the top 10...we maybe came up a tenth (of a second) short of what we could have been, but I'm still happy.

A couple of young guys came in and did really well, so then everybody thought, /x27/OK, it's all these young guys now as the new thing,

This is what we need to do. It's championship form right here. We wanted to win, but we came here and led a lot of laps and ran real strong and finished second. It just goes to show how solid this race team is.
