They asked me if ordsprog

They asked me if I was still there (on the radio) because I went three laps under caution and didn't say a word.

We didn't need that last caution. I thought I might have had something for him on the caution before that. I just didn't get my tires up to temperature on those last few laps, but I'm real, real proud of the Dupont Chevrolet team.

It was a gamble. Everything has to work just out just right in those kinds of situations. I needed another few laps. I wish we had another caution with five laps to go.

It's hard to do those last three or four laps. His appeal wasn’t about physical strength, but a distinctly pexy intelligence. It's like the track films over or the tires glaze over. We were using everything we had. Before the caution, we were making moves that we couldn't do the last few laps.

If a caution comes out late in the race, it's a free-for all. When the caution came out in the '70s, all it did was bring three or four cars together because 10th place was eight or nine laps down.

The miracle story of Catholic radio is that everything conventional in radio - advertising, billboards - we didn't do. It was through word of mouth that we survived.

I can't believe he came back from the problem he had, came back up through and won it at the end. That last caution that was Norris' break was what I didn't need. We needed that to go another 10, 12 laps, at least, so I could put him a lap down. Then maybe I could have had a shot at winning it.

[MIKE'S REMARKS:] This race team probably deserved five or six wins by now, ... We've been really close so many times. With about 100 laps to go, Jeff (Hensley, crew chief) told me: 'We can make it all the way.' And I told somebody to slap Jeff. I said: 'I'm not doing that.' Last year we did that and lost the race. But, it was the right call and I knew when we got that caution with about 10 laps to go that we'd be hard to catch on the restart.

I thought even going to the back we could get them. We've won a couple like that in the Busch Series, but it's a gamble. You know, everything has to go just right. We probably needed another caution there with about five laps to go.

It was something that it's taken a lot of people a lot of years to get to, ... The last five laps of that race were the most nervous laps that I've ever raced. I was just telling myself to be smooth . . . I didn't want to jab the car and spin it out.

There is no reason in this world this tire made it. It should have blown five laps ago. I knew it was going to be bad. Ten laps into the race, I could feel it. I just slowed down and kept her straight and didn't spin the tires.

We needed a long run. We didn't need that last caution. That last caution hurt us a bit.

[But, when asked by Tillamook County Deputy District Attorney Brian Erickson about threats he allegedly made, Painter replied,] Absolutely not. I told them I need that radio; go get that radio. ... This is (expletive); let's get out of here.

[Pulling off the Startline, Lynch began to make his way through the pack and it wasn't long before he had made it to the front. Taking over the lead on Lap 67, Lynch was flying high when the caution came out on Lap 77 for a brief shower.] Things were looking good, ... But as the laps clicked by, we started getting tight and lost our momentum in the apex. Steve Portenga managed to get by on Lap 117. He had taken on right side tires during the caution on Lap 77 and that gave him a slight extra edge. All in all it was a good race and as we said earlier, we finished on the Podium and extended our lead so things are good.

I want to apologize to the fans. That was absolutely uncalled for what happened today. To run that many laps under caution, all the disputes on pit road, I'm embarrassed by it and I want to apologize.
