JOEY LOGANO, No. 22 Shell/Pennzoil Ford Fusion – “We didn’t have the speed to get the pole, but I just didn’t go fast enough the last one. Overall, we pressed as hard as we could today. We made our car better and it’s got short-run speed, but it just falls off. Hopefully, we made the right changes for the race.”

CHASE ELLIOTT, NO. 9 SUNENERGY 1 CAMARO ZL1 – Qualified 3rd - A STRONG RUN. SEEMS LIKE IT WAS LOST JUST IN THAT LAST CORNER? “Yeah, maybe. I don’t know. I’m not sure. It’s very frustrating. I feel like I had a real opportunity to grab a pole today. I felt like I had a good lap going and then I got a little loose out of Turn 11 and thought I could stay in it and just thought I didn’t have any more room. It was pretty close. That sucks. I just hate to be that close. We haven’t been qualifying real good. It would have been nice to have gotten one today.”

It had been a little bit rough before that, but I feel like you are as good as your last race, so right now we are as good as our last race and our last race was pretty good. We have to build on that and try to keep the momentum up for this weekend and try to take advantage of it.”
