F. Schumacher Asking Quotations

I was freaked out. I get nervous, believe me. I kept asking the guys if we got bumped. It was like in '99 at Memphis when we didn't make a good pass in round one and then it started raining and raining. Joe Amato would have passed us in the points if we didn't qualify but NHRA gave us all one more chance Sunday morning and we got in. I got no sleep that night.

Unions are asking for more, but we are still a long way from excessive demands. The wage restraint continues.

Its a big day tomorrow, ... Doug runs Bernstein. Thats exciting to watch. (Fans are asking me what its like to be in a points battle) and I say, you know what? Its exciting. Its exciting to be in it. Just because I drive a race car doesnt mean Im not a race fan. As soon as Im done, Im watching them. Its not just that were in a points battle, but Bernstein and Kalitta? Thats a stout race. Bernstein just hauled butt down the track and Kalitta just smoked the tires. You can be sure its going to have their stomachs turning.
