Steve Kinser: - "This is a great series and I glad to be part of it. I'll be running close to 76 nights this year on the World of Outlaws schedule -- and that's just final nights. I don't know what my strategy will be starting on the pole. It hasn't always been the best place to start here the last few years.
Tom Kendall: I just want to win one of these races so I can stop explaining to people why I'm the only guy in IROC they've never heard of.
Terry Labonte: "I'm excited to be back in IROC. It's a great series. I'm sure I'll have an opportunity to get passed by a lot of drivers and I'll also have a the opprotunity to pass alot of them back."
Dale Earnhardt: "It's great to be back in IROC. It was great to win the championship last year, sitting in the garage watching it. It was fun winning it -- it wasn't fun watching it. Jay Signore has the new Pontiacs driving great in practice. Tey're going to be great race cars. It would be great to win (an unprecedented third IROC championship. Winning here at Daytona is fun in anything."
