CHRIS BUESCHER, No. 60 AdvoCare Ford Mustang – Finished 5th
“We got it turned around here. A race like this is the reason this is my favorite place. I love this race track. It did exactly what we thought it would in the heat of the day. It got slick and we were hanging on. I need to say thanks to AdvoCare. I have been doing plenty of rehydrating trying to keep up with it. It is brutal out there. It was a really good day for our team and we will definitely take this when it is all said and done.”

NINE TO GO, 29 POINT LEAD. YOU HAVE TO BE REAL HAPPY WITH YOUR SPOT. “It isn’t over by any means. There is a long way to go and we will have to race hard all the way to the end. I do like where we are at and we have been able to kind of fluctuate a little in this area this year. This is a huge testament to the 60 team and everyone back at Roush Fenway. We are in a good spot. We want to continue it for sure.”

JOEY LOGANO, No. 22 Hertz Ford Mustang – Finished 6th
“We had an okay Hertz Ford Mustang, but that is about where we should have finished. We maybe had a fourth or fifth place car, but that is about it. We were just missing a little bit out there to be able to contend for a win here today but I am proud of the 22 team today. They worked hard to adjust on it. We were just too loose all day. It was hot out there and I am just disappointed we couldn’t get a better finish because this Hertz Rent-A-Racer Mustang is such a cool looking car, it deserved to go to victory lane.”
