KENNY WALLACE, NO. 27 EEL RIVER RACING PONTIAC GRAND PRIX:

(ON NOT GETTING TO QUALIFY HERE) "I love qualifying. It's always been one of my strong points. This is just something that has happened and now we've got to go on with it.

"I think there is a common theme around the garage area that we're racing 36 weeks a year, our schedules have been condensed and it just seems like we don't have any room for error in this sport now if Mother Nature interrupts us at all. This is something that had nothing to do with anybody. It's just the way it is."

(ARE YOU STILL OKAY WITH TWO-DAY SCHEDULES EVEN THOUGH THIS HAPPENED?) "It's still a hell of a lot better than if you don't make the top 25, having to be miserable all night long knowing that when you come to Darlington that there is no way you're going to go faster the second day anyway."
