Kurt Busch Car Quotations

There are going to be little victories that we claim, even if it's finishing 15th and putting the car back in hauler without a scratch on it.

I just always dreamed of racing cars, but I didn't think I could do it as a living.

This is like my dad's race team where we had one Legend car. If we wrecked it, we couldn't race the next week unless we had enough parts to put it back together again.

I feel like we're a very good top-10 car, but we really have to work hard and find a unique way to get these top fives.

It's just that fun atmosphere, working on the car, being with the guys. This is exactly what I needed.

James Finch has always had pretty stout cars for the restrictor-plate races and I know we'll be very competitive at Daytona.

James Finch is exactly what I'm looking for, as far as getting back into the race car to have fun.

I feel comfortable around every driver out there and each driver is in charge of their own car, but you feel very secure racing the competition out there.

So there is going to be that balance of understanding how to get the best out of the car that day, whether it's 15th or even if I have a shot at a top 10, protecting that car so we can bring it back when we have to.

I don't know what he was doing. I was a lapped car trying to get out of his way. He checked up. ... I tried not to get him. I had nowhere to go.

I'm still contractually obligated to drive this car in 2005 and in 2006. I told Jack (Roush) that. I signed with a different team for 2007 because of opportunities and timing.

If you think I'm good, wait until you see my little brother, ... He's an even better race car driver than I am.

I ran out of gas when I got into the garage area, and Jimmy Spencer ran into the back of my car. I was still in the car when he approached me with obvious anger. Words were exchanged, but I was still strapped in my seat with my helmet off when he struck me in the face. He broke my tooth and bloodied my nose.

If you're running in the top-five during the race, usually you're single file, not three-wide pack, that's something you try to position yourself for. If you're stuck in the middle there's not much you can do. You don't want to get caught up in a wreck, so you have to decide if you want to go forward or if you want to hang out in the back and wait for a pit stop to jumble up the field. Qualifying is important, but, if you qualify up front, you can get shuffled to the back if you get into the wrong draft. We'll see how it shakes up. We have a good car. It's the car we ran seventh here earlier this year so I'm excited to bring it back.

I just wanted to tell his crew chief that he started the car way too loose so, hopefully, they don't hurt anybody else in the Chase.

I just wanted to tell (Riggs') crew chief that he started his car way too loose, ... so hopefully they don't hurt anybody else in the Chase.
