“We’re right in the middle of this thing with three weeks to go. It’s um, it is obviously a great feeling and a great position to be in.”
Carl Edwards, not surprised that Stewart is doing so well in the chase and;
“Be a guy you’d have to beat for the championship and I think he’s proven that.”
And though 57 points back; Kyle Busch still in the hunt.
“We’ve got to pick up ten points per race, so that’s, that’s obviously a big challenge, but it’s just to the point where anything can happen. You just got to play it lap by lap, race by race.”

And, former driver Jeremy Mayfield, arrested and charged with possession of methanphetamine. The 42 year-old former Sprint Cup driver was suspended from NASCAR in 2009 for failing a random drug test.
