It's always fun to get back with this bunch of guys and get out there and mix it up a little bit. It's going to be interesting. It's a lot of fun and there's a little bit of a learning curve with the cars, It's going to be fun; it's going to be interesting who draws what to start. That's going to be the key to the thing.

I got to draw up front. These cars are really hard unless you can get up and really push somebody to make a mistake to get by, because they're all so equal. It's a situation where it depends on your skill in maneuvering yourself into a position like that.

It's been a while, two or three years, four years maybe, since I last raced. I drove a Legends car at Texas Motor Speedway. Had some fun on an oval track, now we'll get out here with a front-wheel drive Scion and go around a road course.

I'm looking forward to racing against everybody. We've all raced against one another at one time or another, so it's good to get back together
and visit again. We've just got to keep an eye on Bobby Unser so he doesn't cheat.
