Austin Dillon and the No. 3 American Ethanol Team Sidelined by Multi-Car Incident at Daytona International Speedway "I didn't see exactly what happened during the multi-car incident that ended our night early so am not sure. I tried to slow down. I downshifted but it wasn't enough. We knocked the oil cooler and radiator out."
PAUL MENARD, NO. 27 MOEN/MENARDS CHEVROLET SS – Finished 3rd "We really didn't want to hang out in the back, but we got involved in a wreck really early and once you get back there, it is really hard to get back up to the front. I was just waiting for something to happen at the end of those stages. We weren't in the top-15 so I just bailed out of the pack for the stages. I had a really good handling car from yesterday in the draft practice. All weekend long it handled really well. I knew it would race really well tonight."
