BRIAN, SUM UP YOUR NIGHT.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe had a great car. I mean, last year we had a little problem and (the car) got really tight during the race so we figured we would make an adjustment tonight so that wouldn’t happen \u2013 and that definitely didn’t happen. We were way too loose. <\/p>\n

\u201cObviously, it was faster the first 20 laps. I knew right off that it was way too fast, so it was going to be a long night and it was. We were probably lucky to finish where we did as loose as it was. We almost spun out in turn one with five to go. Very, very loose. I turned really well through the center (of the turns) but no bite in and no bite off. We did that to ourselves. It was as much my call as anyone else’s. Nobody to blame. but we learn a little bit every time that we come here.\u201d<\/p>\n

IS THIS PLACE AS TRICKY AS THEY SAY IT IS?<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have a great race car. Two years ago, it’s funny, we come back here for the first time in forever and it seems like we hit it perfect. We’re working to get it back to there. I know we could have. I know the last few adjustments we made probably could have made all the difference in the world but that’s OK. <\/p>\n

\u201cWe got another good Top-10 run. It was a good points night. We led a few laps. The car is relatively unscathed and we still have lots of racing left to do this year. We’re still in contention and have a great season going still.\u201d<\/p>\n
