Q.On a positive note, to just get to experience this first round of the playoffs, what did you learn as a driver and just about yourself as a competitor through this?
HARRISON BURTON: Yeah, to me, it was really fun to show up and have speed at all the racetracks we went to, and it was just a comedy of errors really with Atlanta the last corner, blowing a tire at Watkins Glen, and now this. Just kind of heartbreaking to end it that way where I felt like our team stepped up and we brought fast race cars, were good in all the practices. Just need to qualify better and need to find a way to finish the races where we belong.
Proud of our guys. Really just super proud to be a part of the Wood Brothers family and sad it’s over, but we’ve still got a lot to race for now that we’ve been bumped up in the points, we can go get these guys if they have some bad weekends and we have some good ones. A lot to fight for. I’ve just got to get my arms back underneath me before next weekend.
Q.Is there a harder track on the schedule potentially to have a power steering issue than this?
HARRISON BURTON: No, I don’t think so. I’ve not tried it anywhere else. But yeah, this was not fun. Just went as long as I could and just got to where I couldn’t correct the car and was getting loose and just thought I was going to wreck without being able to turn to the right fast enough. Just frustrated I wasn’t strong enough to keep going, but that’s just part of it.
