Brendan Gaughan and the South Point Hotel & Casino Team Fight for Stage Points and Finish 21st at Richmond Raceway "I've always said I like to gamble, and that's what we did tonight. Shane Wilson and I needed another caution to help us gain the track position we were hoping for to finish the race. I am pumped up about leading laps at Richmond Raceway, as that's a big accomplishment for me here, and gaining stage points is what our strategy was all about. Ultimately, this South Point Hotel & Casino team gave me an awesome Chevy tonight and the pit crew was solid as well. We will go to Chicago fighting our hardest as the last race before the Playoffs begin."

BRAD KESELOWSKI, No. 22 Fitzgerald Glider Kits Ford Mustang -- TAKE US THROUGH THE FINISH OF THE RACE AND CHASING DOWN THE 18: “I just wish I could explain better than I know how. I wish I could have somebody riding with me and kind of explain what it is like and see things through my view. I guess that is the beauty of the helmet cam we are trying to put in. From my view that was one of those race wins that was extremely personally gratifying. To know you are probably not as good as someone on the short run and just try to wear them down every lap and knowing that if you can get a long run you’ve got a shot and it and we did - we got a long run and I still had to make the right moves."

Ryan Reed led the way in round one of qualifying and advanced all the way to the third and final round to start Friday evening’s race 12th at Richmond Raceway.
