TONY BEING TONY Fresh off winning two weeks in Chicago and happy to be back home in Indiana, two-time NASCAR Nextel Cup Champion Tony Stewart showed Friday that he still doesn't suffer fools gladly. Or reporters, for that matter. Asked what's so special about Indianapolis Motor Speedway, Stewart ripped into a television reporter. "You're kidding, right?" Stewart fired back. "You don't know the answer to that already? You really don't know the answer to that?

We have had great performances, we've had a car to win races with, but for whatever reason, we have had some wild things happen to us here lately and we have lost a lot of ground. So we want to make sure that we safely transfer in," Johnson said. "We don't want to be in a thrash going into Richmond and have to count on that. So, first priority is to get top tens, top fives, then obviously for a position to win and go for that. We really need to find bottom here on the bad luck that we have had and get things going in the right direction."
