Q.
Far more interesting than talking on your cell phone.
TONY STEWART:
Yeah, who would you talk to? I don't even like cell phones. I'm not the best at talking on cell phones anyway. It's not a national pastime of mine like it is most people.
Q.
What do you think about the morning of the race?
TONY STEWART:
Normally you're thinking about what you want to have for lunch, who you're going to go hang out with that night, and where you're going to go.
Q.
What do you think about Rusty Wallace becoming an NASCAR analyst on TV?
TONY STEWART:
I don't know. It's hard to say. You know, not taking a jab at Darrell Waltrip but look at how brave he got for a period of time when he turned into a TV announcer. He thought he was Superman and forget a lot of the things he was bashing people for on the racetrack was things he was doing on the racetrack.
I'm sure that Rusty will go through a period of that, too, where it's fun and you get consumed by it. But, you know, Darrell learned about it, got back to reality, I'm sure it will happen with Rusty, too. Rusty will do a good job. Rusty has a good personality, like Darrell does. Rusty is smart like Darrell was. They came from the right era where they were hands-on with the race car. They're probably the right guys to do that job, in my opinion.
Q.
What's your opinion of restrictor plate racing? How do you feel like you evolved as a driver over the years?
TONY STEWART:
Still a checkers player.
Q.
You won, so.
TONY STEWART:
Yeah, but it doesn't mean that you got that confidence every week that you can go out and win every week here. It's a chess match and I'm a checkers player. Hopefully I make the right move at the right time.
