OWNER CHAMPIONSHIP PRESS CONFERENCE – JEREMY BULLINS
JEREMY BULLINS, crew chief, No. 22 Hertz Ford Mustang – TALK ABOUT THE SIGNIFICANCE OF WINNING THIS OWNERS CHAMPIONSHIP FOR TEAM PENSKE? “I think the things we have talked about this week that gets lost a little with the owners championship is it is a team championship. No matter who drove, who worked on the car, if you look at the Nationwide Series the last two years the 22 and 54 have separated themselves from the rest of the teams and have two teams that are 100 points ahead of everyone else for two years in a row, those are two teams that have a lot to be proud of. There are a lot of people at Team Penske that have been a big part of that. With everyone that drove the car, everybody played a role in it, whether it was one race or 10. I am really grateful for the opportunity and for everything Roger has given us to be successful. I am glad we were able to finish it off tonight.”
HOW DO YOU JUGGLE EVERYTHING EACH OF THE DRIVERS NEED AND KEEP STRAIGHT WHAT EACH IS LOOKING FOR IN THE CAR? “I think with the two Cup drivers, Joey and Brad, we are fortunate that their Cup teams are right down the hall. We are able to pay attention to what those guys are working on, what they like in their Cup cars and feed off that information. It is the same thing with Blaney. We are able to keep up with him in the Truck and learn and gather as much information as we can about how guys communicate and what things they like in the car, what they don’t like. When we have the other guys for a race or two each it is a matter of spending time with them before going to the race track, spend as much time as you can and do your homework on their history and what their strengths and weaknesses are and try to get the most out of it.”
