"Tonight really wasn't our night, but we stayed with it and battled to the end,” said Dillon after the race. “We got into a wreck pretty early on and had to make several pit stops to repair the right-front nose of our No. 95 Chevy Summer Sell Down Chevrolet. I'm proud of the effort of our team and its never-give-up attitude.
SPARTA, Ky. -- When asked why NASCAR only ran the lower downforce package at tracks with a less abrasive surface, Scott Miller said that there were "strategic reasons" for doing so.
We started saving fuel as soon as the final green-flag run started and we saved exactly the right amount. We were out at the end. I think all of us drivers that made it knew what we were doing. It's just a matter of if we thought we were as good as we were. I'm just proud of the guys. It's our first top-five finish of the year, but we'll keep digging." - Ryan Newman
“I don’t know if it blew a tire or if something broke in the car," said Allmendinger about the accident that ultimately ended his night. "Everything kind of happened at once. Unfortunately, it was right on the bottom of the racetrack on the tri-oval and it went straight to the fence.
"This is a night I’m not gonna forget. Last year we came here and I thought we were the best car and didn’t catch a single break, didn’t execute, and those two things kept us out of victory lane, not just here but a lot of times last year, and this week we caught some breaks. We executed and we were able to win, so not the fastest car but it’s still a hell of a team effort to be proud of.”
“It’s definitely an emotional rollercoaster for sure the last few laps of that race. When we pitted, I guess it was with about 70 to go, we knew that everyone was a little bit short. I feel like we’ve been on the good side of the fuel mileage this year.
