KEVIN HARVICK, No. 4 Busch Beer Flannel Ford Mustang
Finished: 38th (Retired after accident on lap 10)
“You know, I went to the back to start and thought that was going to happen several times throughout the day. I got myself back there and it looked pretty tame so I decided to go back to the front and drove back up there fairly easy. I don’t know what happened. They all wrecked and I slowed down and somebody hit me in the door and I hit the wall.”
MICHAEL MCDOWELL, No. 34 Love’s Travel Stops Ford Mustang
Finished: 40th (Retired after accident on lap 10)
“I am not really sure what happened. I didn’t see a lot of it. Looked like the 43 was being real aggressive and making stupid moves at the beginning of the race. The Love’s Travel Stops Mustang was really fast and that is pretty early in the race to be making dumb moves like that.”
WHAT DID YOU SEE? “Not a whole lot. It was pretty early on to be that aggressive. Unfortunately for the Love’s Travel Stops Ford we were in the wrong place at the wrong time. I saw the 43 coming up the race track and that was about it. It is disappointing. We have had such good speed and such a great superspeedway program and we were really hopeful for today. To be out so early on is very disappointing. It is out of our control though. It is part of superspeedway racing.”
