JOEY LOGANO PRACTICE SESSION 1 INCIDENT QUOTE:
JOEY LOGANO, No. 22 AutoTrader.com Ford Fusion –“We had a left rear tire go down there. The same exact thing happened in this race last year. I wasn’t even close to saving that. I needed about 500 more yards of straightaway to save that one. Unfortunately we will have to get the second AutoTrader.com Fusion out here and try to get it tuned up for the race. It is a bummer. I felt like our car was pretty good. It wasn’t great but we were getting closer and I felt like we were a top-five car. Hopefully the other one is just as good. Team Penske does a great job of making these cars consistent so I am not too worried about it.”
THIS SEEMS TO BE AN ISSUE WITH THE LEFT REAR TIRE HERE. ARE YOU FEELING ANYTHING OUT THERE BEFORE THESE TIRES ARE GOING? “Not until they go down. That was only the third run on the tire so it is kind of odd. It is something we have had issues with with this tire. I had one go down at the Milwaukee test and I know they have had some issues when cars tested here of tires going down and it is the left rear all the time. I don’t know what it is. I have had three of them now with this tire. Three left rear tires go flat with this type of tire. Maybe we need to look at something we are doing that is causing it. We will figure it out.”
