from a Toyota Notes & Quotes Transcript:
Q) Do you feel more pressure to make the Chase or from the uncertainty of your future?
Logano: ‘I think you feel pressure from both ends. You want to be able to focus 100 percent on what you ‘re doing ‘ right now, trying to make the Chase. During the week, we ‘re trying to figure out what my future is going to be and I ‘m trying to prepare myself for the weekend and then when we get here, I put all that stuff in the back of my mind and then focus 100 percent on what I have going on this weekend in trying to win a race. I say it all the time ‘ winning races will make all the other stuff come along a lot quicker. We ‘re getting there slowly but surely.’
Q) Do you feel like you control your destiny more to make the Chase or determine your future?Logano: ‘I don ‘t know. Obviously, racing itself on one side of it out there on the race track, you can only control so much of your destiny out there, but you can control it quite a bit. If you can control it on the racing side, you can control it on the other side too. As long as I keep doing what we ‘ve been doing on the race track with all the top-10s we ‘ve got and top-fives and with that win ‘ being near that Chase spot makes you want it a little bit more. We have to keep working on that.’
Q) Have you made contact with Penske Racing for next season?
Logano: ‘Obviously, right now we look at all our options out there in trying to do whatever we can do to have the best opportunity for my future. That’s talking to as many people as we can and seeing what’s available.’(Toyota Notes & Quotes)(7-13-2012)
