Post-Qualifying Quotes

KURT BUSCH (No. 2 Operation Home Front/Miller Lite Dodge Charger) “We ran a 39.86 with the Miller Lite Dodge and were just dead loose at one point. Our early qualifying draw didn’t help us, but we weren’t the only ones to go out early. That’s just part of the deal. Fontana is a big, wide track with plenty of room to move around. We put ourselves behind a bit in qualifying. Now we’ll have to play catch up on race day.”
BRAD KESELOWSKI (No. 12 Penske Dodge Charger) “I’ll take it. I was excited that we ran that fast because I didn’t feel like the car drove that well at all. We put up a decent lap for how it drove despite the fact that it wasn’t a perfect run. It’s pretty warm out and the cars tend to get on the loose side here. I was a little loose in (Turns) 1 and 2, got through 3 better and 4 was OK. Let’s see where it puts us.”
SAM HORNISH JR. (No. 77 Mobil 1 Dodge Charger) “We haven’t been good all day, so I didn’t expect too much in qualifying. Just a struggle today.”
