TEAM CHEVY DRIVER NOTES & QUOTES

JEFF GORDON, NO. 24 AARP MEMBER ADVANTAGES CHEVROLET SS – Post Happy Hour Practice session comment on earlier in-garage accident with Clint Bowyer (No. 15 Toyota):
“Hopefully all this hard work and stuff we’re going through will pay off tomorrow. We’ve got a pit cart over there that kind of blocks what you can see of the back of my car backing out there. The guy that backs me out looked over, guess he was just starting to back me out; and I crept out there and he cleared me, but the No. 15 (Bowyer), probably couldn’t really see me because of that pit cart and I don’t know if he kind of glanced away or what, but when he looked back, I was just right there and couldn’t go anywhere. Its kind of a combination of, I guess, both of us could take fault in that.
“But our team did an amazing job of fixing quite a bit of damage (to the right rear). I love seeing my crew chief (Alan Gustafson) get in there and get dirty, but not for that reason. And, that practice went a little bit better than the other one. So, we’re gaining on it.
“I don’t want to say it can’t get worse, but I know it can. So, I’m not going to say that. But hopefully this will all pay off for us tomorrow.”
