GREG IVES, CREW CHIEF, NO. 88 NATIONWIDE CHEVROLET SS
ON BEING TOO LOW FOLLOWING POST QUALIFYING INSPECTION FOR THE DAYTONA 500:
“Obviously NASCAR does a great job inspecting the cars and they found that our ride heights after qualifying were too low.  They did their due diligence of allowing us to go through their processes of how they deal with it.  In the end we still ended up low.  It’s unfortunate for the No. 88 Nationwide Chevrolet SS team.  We were definitely not trying to do anything intentional here.  I don’t feel it was an advantage that got us to our 10th place position, but it is definitely something that can be frowned upon and not looked as being compliant to the rules and that is what we need to stick to.”

*Note: The No. 88 Nationwide Chevrolet SS will start from the 25th position in Thursday’s qualifying race.
