I wished to win for (observe proprietor) Bruton (Smith), (crew chief) Daniel (Hood), however these children are robust out right here. Some days, issues go proper, and our automobile was prepared and ready, and I midway did my job. I am excited and I get to ship this (Wally trophy) to Bruton, a man I actually love.”
