MARTIN TRUEX JR, No. 78 Bass Pro Shops / 5-hour ENERGY Toyota Camry, Furniture Row Racing - Qualifying Position: 6th “It was okay. Obviously, you always want to be first, but sixth was a decent day. We were just a little too tight there on every run. We kept freeing it up and freeing it up, but we never really got on top of it. Hopefully we’ll figure it out for the race and have a decent run.”

CLINT BOWYER, No. 14 Rush Truck Centers Ford Fusion - Qualified 2nd -- IS THERE EXTRA PRESSURE ON YOU BEING WITH SUCH A GOOD TEAM TO MAKE THE CHAMPIONSHIP FOUR? “Pressure is fun. It is fun to be in these situations. I was freaking out at the Roval. Literally, my wife was like, ‘Are you going to be alright?’ I was like, “Hell, I don't know. I haven’t eaten much today.’ It’s fun having the pressure of being in that environment and having that feeling. You are racing for something very prestigious. It is a meaningful thing. It is a big damn deal. It is fun to be competing for that and an honor. Something I haven’t been able to do in a long time. It is neat to be back in the swing of that because of my team and the organization I am with.”

CLINT BOWYER, No. 14 Rush Truck Centers Ford Fusion - Qualified 2nd “Good God, after the way I have been qualifying lately it feels like I am sitting on four poles. We are on the front row man. I am terrible. You come to a track where you know you have a shot. When you won here in the spring you know you have a shot. It is cool weather, kind of the same conditions. Obviously it wasn’t the pole and Kyle (Busch) was faster. Kyle is really good at laying laps down. I like the Sunday afternoon drives.”

Tundra driver Brett Moffitt was the top Toyota-finisher in Saturday’s NASCAR Camping World Truck Series (NCWTS) race at Martinsville Speedway after placing second.

KYLE BUSCH, No. 18 M&M’s Halloween Toyota Camry, Joe Gibbs Racing - What clicked for you at Martinsville dating back to the fall race in 2015? “I’m not sure what kind of started clicking for us. I had a few top-fives I think before that as well too with Dave Rogers. I think that’s when it really was starting to finally set in. Maybe 2012 or 13ish, we always had decent runs going here, but we never materialized throughout the entire day and make the right adjustments the entire day to be there at the end."

Clint Bowyer heads back to Martinsville Speedway looking to kick off the Round of 8 playoffs the same way he did at the track in the spring, with a win. Bowyer spoke about returning to the site of victory and what it will take to advance into the Championship 4 at Homestead.

HARRISON BURTON, No. 51 Morton Buildings Toyota Tundra, Kyle Busch Motorsports - How much fun is it to race together all these years? “It’s a lot of fun. We all work together really well and me a Christian (Eckes) road-tripped up here together. It’s cool. We get to have our really good friends working along beside us and on our team as well so that’s a lot of fun."

NOAH GRAGSON, No. 18 Safelite AutoGlass Toyota Tundra, Kyle Busch Motorsports - You won here last year, what’s it going to take to replicate that success and do it here again? “I feel like this race track itself is different every time you come here. You can come with the same setup for 10 years and you’re going to run differently every single time. It’s just the way the track takes rubber."
