Jamie only took part in one race in the Craftsman (now Camping World) Truck Series in 2008 (the Kroger 200 on October 18th) and he finished 18th in that race.
Jamie: (Talking about proposing to his long time girlfriend Christy Futrell) Yeah, I got on my knee. Christy and I have been together for so long that it's weird when you're talking to your friend. You picture that as a child, I think, doing that, and you don't know what the person looks like, but we're sitting there, and I'm, like, 'Gosh, this is my best friend.' I kind of felt corny. Do I have to get on my knee? Because I'm certainly not Romeo, by any means, you know? Not even close.
Jamie: (Talking about kart racing, one of his favorite hobbies) When you get to the level we're at in professional racing, it becomes work -- sometimes we forget about why we fell in love with it. The bottom line is, we do this because it's fun. A lot of times in our sport, we turn it into work, but doing something like [karting] makes you love it again and remember how passionate we are about it.
Jamie: Carl had a really good run the last lap and could've made it three-wide, and fortunately he was an incredible teammate tonight. He ended up giving that push, and that push is what helped get me to Victory Lane.
