“The guys did a good job. We came here and tested. I’m not sure if that didn’t hurt us more than the guys that didn’t test because they changed the tire so much. We were so adapted to the other tire that we really kind of had to undo a lot of the things that helped us when we were here testing. Once we got that out of the car -- we started making progress throughout practice."
"I got tight and wasn’t able to hold the speed to get the pole. Overall it is a good starting spot and we are qualifying well. If you count out the restrictor plate stuff we are still the only car to make it through every session and we are proud of that and ready to go for another win.”
“Just have to thank everybody on my Jimmy John’s Chevrolet for all that they do. It was ‘Freaky Fast’ today so just have to put it all together tomorrow night when it counts. The pole is great, these guys have done a great job for qualifying. It makes life a lot easier when you can have pit stall one.
