“First of all, I want to thank Maury Gallagher and Richard Petty"

“First of all, I want to thank Maury Gallagher and Richard Petty for giving me the opportunity this year,” Dillon told NBC Sports during Xfinity Series qualifying. “You hate for a relationship to end so soon, not even halfway into your first season together, but I’m not going to waste my time thinking about things that could have happened.

“I’m excited for my future."

“I’m excited for my future. I see this as a bridge to what’s next. It might not be today, it might not be next month, this year, but I will win races in the Cup Series. I will win championships.

“You’re going to have to put a straitjacket on me and tie me down to keep me from working hard to accomplish that dream. I know in my heart I can do it. The next opportunity is going to be right around the corner, and I’m going to work hard.”

I’m grinding hard, I’m working hard, and I’ll never give up on my dream.”
