I was excited how we did today. It was a true cross country race, running through the creeks like we did. I talked to the guys about showing up and doing what they needed to do. We showed up today.

Was I disappointed? Yes. We are a better than what we showed today. It was very hot and muggy. You just need to be ready to run each day.

We did well for the time we had put in. We can definitely improve on what we did today.

He came back and proved a point. When he plays like he did today, with all his running, he is a great asset to us.

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.

It was a great showing by the boys. We placed 10th out of 28 teams.
