Kelli-they didn't need to win a championship to prove anything to me about what that group is made of. I say that as someone who's often said that a first round loss for John Force makes Sunday better. They showed me something different this year. I can't begin to describe how much admiration I have for John Medlin and his willingness and strength to go on. He turned the loss of his son into something very positive in terms of trying to build safer race cars. Plus by the end of the year he was doing that segment for Ford on the ESPN show where he answered viewer questions.
