Jack Roush post-race quote-I didn't really want to say this out loud after the last couple weeks, but I've kinda had a hunch that of Greg and Matt and Carl, we'd only be able to get 2 of 'em into the Chase. I think that's gonna definitely hold true after today. MIS is our best track, and Matt got wrecked out and lost even more ground. At this point it's a longshot for him to make it. Obviously we're not gonna roll over and accept defeat and we're still gonna work real hard to get Greg over the hump as well but we know we've got our work cut out for us.
Greg Biffle post-race quote-This was a huge race for us. Definitely a championship performance out of the Gander Mountain crew today. We rallied from a lap down to getting it back the hard way and eventually nailing down a big-time top 5 run. We need to run like this the next couple weeks if we want to have a shot. Next week is a major wild card and based on how those races have been the past couple years I think it's safe to say we'll be in damage control mode there but Chicago and Dover are really good tracks for us. This was a momentum-building day for us for sure.
Carl Edwards post-race quote-I don't want to jump to conclusions or anything but I think today's run might've really solidified our spot in the Chase. The Office Depot crew did a phenomenal job of taping up the car after we got a little bit of damage, and we never got the handle right but they put me in a good spot and we got a lucky break with that first caution and were able to hold on to a top 10 run. Great work by the entire crew today and we definitely are happy with where we're at right now.
Danny O'Quinn Jr. post-race quote-I just want to apologize for everyone involved in that big crash. I got a little loose and slid up across someone's nose in that big pack and all hell broke loose. It's always a tough deal to be part of the cause of a crash that knocks drivers out of the race but end up getting away mostly unscathed but I think the crew did a great job fixing the damage we got from that and from when I hit the wall, so getting a top 20 out of it today is a pretty good deal.
Matt Kenseth post-race quote-We're done. Absolutely done. Our Chase hopes are pretty much out the window. You know the way our season's gone we'll wreck at 2 of the next 3 races. Completely at a loss as to what I have to do in the car right now.
Todd Kluever post-race quote-That was a really wacky way to drop out of a race. I pretty much hit the wall and blew the engine simultaneously and Dale Jr. had nowhere to go behind me. I don't know if hitting the wall broke something in the car or if I blew an engine and was so close to the wall that I just slid up into it or what. But it really sucks to finish so far down in the running order. I just wish we could get some good on-track time to prepare for next year and for me to get experience. It's been a horrible season.
