You know you have had a bad day at the road course when Kenseth beats you by 5 seconds.... Bull shit!

I'm glad Robby didn't lose his head today. I am proud of this team for continuing to scrap and fight and get back on the lead lap and salvage a decent run. Just sucks, without the power steering problem and maybe even if we had a few more cautions at the end, this was easily a top ten car today, maybe good enough to compete for the win. Glad Ambrose didn't win, even if it was Stewart.

RG was 2 laps down at one point because they had a power steering problem. Way to come back from that.

This was an incredible day for this team -

How can anyone be down on a team that falls behind by two laps and rallies for a top 20? Yeah it would have been nice to have been in the top 10 but I don't recall Rob's team ever pulling off something like this.
