NASCAR O'Reilly Series

RYAN REED, No. 16 ADA Drive to Stop Diabetes Ford Mustang – FINISHED 4th “That was what we needed right there. You know, we were trying to conserve all night but man it felt good to get our first top-five. The guys told me that Ricky really turned his rookie season around a couple years ago at Daytona by coming away with a top-five so I am hoping to do the same thing. We had a bit of a rough start but the guys never gave up on me and I never gave up on them. I am really proud of everyone and thank you to Lily Diabetes and Ford and American Diabetes Association.”

Throughout the race, Kasey Kahne could be found no where near the front of the field leading laps with his JR Motorsports teammates.

“Daytona is one of those tracks where you can score a good finish if you work the draft right and avoid the accidents,” Cassill said. “I’ve had some good runs there in the past, and Johnny and his guys always bring good cars to Daytona. We’re looking for a good showing this week.”

“It’s all about drafting at Daytona, and if you can get hooked up with the right group you can fly,” Earnhardt said. “I’m sure we’ll have a strong race car there. Hopefully, we can make some noise.”
