KEVIN HARVICK, NO. 4 BUDWEISER/JIMMY JOHN’S CHEVROLET SS – FINISHED 2ND - WHAT WAS THE DIFFERENCE IN THE HANDLING IN THE CLOSING LAPS? “The handling was great. Our Budweiser Chevy was really fast, but we were just terrible on the restarts getting going. We would go into defense mode there trying to just keep from going from fifth to sixth or something like that and try to minimize the damage. All-in-all great fast car we just have to do something different for the restarts.”
RICKY STENHOUSE JR. – No. 17 Zest Ford Fusion – “The brakes were getting hot and we were having to pump them up. They kind of maintained the first run and everything felt OK. I was still having to pump it up and on that last run I was having to pump them up three or four times, and then when the 13 got into us down the back straightaway I was too busy catching it and too busy being sideways, and then once I finally caught it I didn’t have time to pump up the brakes and the brakes went to the floor. Then I was just trying to make it through the corner without hitting anybody else and tried to keep it out of the wall, but didn’t quite do it.”

We have had a great season. We have had everything it has taken to win races we just hadn’t got it done yet."
