“Our sport is in a changing of the guard right now. It happens every 10 or 15 years, and Brad is the leader of that change at the moment. Sometimes his words and outspokenness offend some folks, but he doesn’t back down from his comments. He doesn’t back down in his driving either, and when competitors see him coming in the rearview mirror, they have to be wondering what he’ll do and what he’s thinking. I think fans love that and gravitate to drivers like Brad.” ThinkingYearsSometimesMomentsHappensSportsLeaderWonderFansRight NowMirrorsFolksDrivingDriversCommentCompetitorsBradRearview Mirror Author:Darrell Waltrip
“Practice for us went pretty well. It started out slow, but guys did a real nice job on the M&M’s Camry today to get us to where we needed to be. Everybody back at the shop is building some great stuff and TRD (Toyota Racing Development) making some improvements for the Chase here this weekend and whatnot. Having a good time there in practice means a lot, but there’s obviously a lot of things that need to happen in the race this weekend for us and getting off to a good start and being able to carry that into the next 10 weeks.” NeedsWellsMeanRealHappensTodayAbleJobsGuyNextStuffRacePracticeNiceWeekBuildingDevelopmentNeededImprovementShopsGood TimesRacingWeekendHaving A Good TimeToyota Author:Kyle Busch
“It was a battle all day with our M&M's Camry. I don't know why, we just didn't have what we needed. We never seemed to have the ticket we needed today. We got better all day, which was a positive and salvaged something out of nothing -- so all things considering it was okay. It's so late in the year, you're just running laps now and getting what you can get and seeing if you can win next weekend at Homestead to finish the year.” IfsKnowsYearsRunningTodayNextWinningSeeingNeededBattleLateAll ThingsOkayWeekendTicketsConsideringLapYou Can Win Author:Kyle Busch

“Almost certainly, the first essential component of social justice is adequate food for all mankind. Food is the moral right of all who are born into this world. Yet today 50 percent of the world’s population goes hungry.
