“I think were going to have a good day today, but we should have a good day every time we come to the racetrack. Thats what we get paid for. I wasnt surprised that Casey won the pole. I think if Sterling had gone out earlier he would have had a real shot to win the pole. Our teams have had some struggles this year. Some of the pain has been self-inflicted, and some of the things we just couldnt help. Itd be great to win here today. In a way, its just another race, but its a big deal to win Daytona and a big deal to win Indy. Really, its a big deal to win anywhere. It pays the same amount of points, but the money is a little bit different.”
