SPENCER PIGOT, #8 TEAM MAZDASPEED/SKIP BARBER CAR

* Will start tomorrow's race from pole position

"Practice went pretty well, so we knew we had a good car. In qualifying, they kept telling me I was P3 and just one-tenth off. I was able to make an adjustment in the cockpit during the last lap and put in a really good time. I have to thank my guys for their help. I'm looking forward to tomorrow."

ZACH VEACH, #7 TEAM ZAKOSI DATA BACKUP CAR

* Starts tomorrow's race in P5

"I'm really enjoying St. Pete. It's a fun course. With it being my first time here, we've definitely learned a lot. We started the day with a fuel pickup problem, causing us to have to sit out for most of the first practice session. After we went back to the trailer to see what we could do better, we managed to be third-quick in the second session. Moving into qualifying, we made some setup changes. There are a couple of things we can work on for the race tomorrow. The team did a great job and put in a lot of hard work. I look forward to seeing it pay off tomorrow."
