    After a couple of hours of driving with a newborn baby, relaxation for Jeff might just be going 185 mph at Indianapolis.

    If Jeff can survive Indy, where his average finish is 19.2, the rest of the season could be smooth sailing.

    See? If everybody would just get out of the way every time Tony wants the lead, it would be a much calmer world.

    "He's probably kicked the TV off the stand by now, knowing him." -- Jimmie on crew chief Chad Knaus watching from home as the tire blew on the No. 48 Chevrolet, sending it hard into the wall.

  • Clint Bowyer

    Battling back from a pit-road speeding penalty at Chicago was a perfect example why this team has shown the most improvement in 2007.

  • Kevin Harvick

    Just like another guy from Bakersfield, Kevin seems to step it up at Indy, where he's been running on the lead lap at the finish all six times.

    Ryan went camping during the off-week. He's probably one of the few people who can figure towing capacity and gross vehicle weight ratings without using a calculator.

    Bobby's season so far has been a lot like Totino's Pizza Rolls -- cold at the start, warming up in the middle and cooling off at the end.
