Tony Stewart - Post Qualifying Quotes

It was a just a solid run. We didn't go out there with the intention of getting on the pole or anything. We just wanted to make a qualifying lap. We didn't do a qualifying run last night because I spun, and that took our qualifying setup away from us. So, a good solid lap there and got something that was comfortable and the good thing is the car felt good. So, even though I didn't get that real fast lap, at least the car feels stable again.

HOW HAS THE TRACK CHANGED FROM YESTERDAY, WEATHER, ETC?
I don't know. Like I said this is the first time we ran a qualifying setup so it's hard to tell.

HOW WOULD YOU ASSESS YOUR CHANCES FOR SUNDAY?
I don't know, I'm not an odds maker. We're just going into the race. I don't know. We'll see. We're going to go out and have a typical Joe Gibbs Home Depot day. So, if we can just go out there and have a good run, we'll let the rest of it take care of itself.

RE: GOING INTO THE RACE,
It's just like I told the guys today, just have fun. Just relax and have a good time because that's what this weekend is about for us. So, we don't have to create magic this weekend, we just have to go out and have a solid performance and the rest of it will take care of itself.
