KASEY KAHNE, NO. 5 FARMERS INSURANCE CHEVROLET, POLE WINNER: ON HIS QUALIFYING LAP: "Our Farmers Insurance Chevrolet was awesome right there. It was great. I tried to get a little...I went into (turn) three, and felt like I could go wide open. So I went back to wide open, and then I started just chattering a little bit. So, I eased off the throttle and back down. I definitely gave up a little time doing that. So far so good though."
MARCOS AMBROSE, No. 9 Black & Decker Ford Fusion (Qualified 18th) – “I’ve got a brand new race suit on with Black and Decker and the first time they have been in the sport with their new tool called the Gyro.

It was better than it was in practice which is a good step for us. We have been through a tough month and we are looking forward to putting it behind us and getting some good results.”
