BRAD KESELOWSKI, No. 22 Hertz Ford Mustang – FINISHED 1st
“This is really satisfying. This team has deserved to win a few races and things just haven’t quite gone their way and it is nice to put it together here at Loudon with a strong car and great team. Loudon is one of my favorite places to go race. That is why I am running the Nationwide race here. I really enjoy being out here. I want to thank the fans for coming out and we hope to see you tomorrow and hopefully we can do the same thing.”
DID YOU GET NERVOUS AT ALL WITH THE LAP TRAFFIC TOWARD THE END OF THE RACE? “Yeah a little. Lap traffic is always difficult here at Loudon but I give credit to the field. They helped me out and gave me a few breaks. That is part of the fun.”
THIS IS THE SEVENTH STRAIGHT YEAR YOU’VE HAD AT LEAST TWO NATIONWIDE SERIES WINS. NEVER GETS OLD DOES IT? “No, I enjoy this series and feel lucky I am allowed to compete in it.”
CHRIS BUESCHER, No. 60 Ford EcoBoost Mustang – FINISHED 5th
“That was pretty awesome. This Ford EcoBoost Mustang was good today. We knew we had something in practice it was just a matter of getting that track position and getting going. I am proud of these guys. They made awesome pit road calls and we got that track position and were able to hold on to it. This Ford was good and I am glad we are making progress. I love these short tracks, this is awesome.”
RYAN REED, No. 16 ADA Drive to Stop Diabetes Ford Mustang – FINISHED 11th
“We ran in the top-10 most of the day. I hate that the balance went away from us at the end. We took two tires and it hurt us. We were fighting for track position all day out there. We definitely had a fast Ford Mustang. I think coming into Daytona last week we decided that was going to be the reset button and the first half of the year was about learning and now we were going to go racing. If we keep doing that we will be in good shape.”
TALK ABOUT YOUR BATTLE WITH REGAN SMITH FOR THE DASH FOR CASH TODAY. “yeah, I gave him too much room through one and two on that last restart and he got me really loose up top. The seams – the second seam was really loose and I got in the second seam and it hurt us really bad. I hate that we didn’t give him more of a battle there but like I say I am proud of my guys and how far we have come this year.”
