Bottom line, we told the clubs today that we are making progress.

I am pleased with the progress of our team today. Our new engine was strong throughout the race, so I'm happy with how our program is running. Our pit crew also performed well and we didn't lose any time in the pits. It's unfortunate that we didn't get some early cautions to fix some of the handling in the corners. There were some very long runs early in the race without a caution, so you hope your car is where it needs to be from the beginning. Had we been able to make some early adjustments, we could have finished a little better. It's all part of the growth process.

Regarding Sunday's games, we will make no decision today. We'll gather information and speak to several parties within the next 24 to 48 hours.

You are where you are today because you have chosen to be there

Substantial progress was made today. We feel that a deal is within reach.

I was very happy with our early progress today, we were able to move up from 17th place into fifth and I was making a move to pass two cars ahead of me. Something happened where they collided and I was unable to avoid their collision. The damage to our nose cone was too extensive to continue. It's a real shame as I was very confident we could succeed today.
