RON HORNADAY, NO. 14 CONSECO PONTIAC GRAND PRIX:

(ON YOUR QUALIFYING LAP) "That was the lap we needed for this Conseco Pontiac. I think the biggest plus right now for me is driving that Busch car. The track got really loose on us, I came running over here and told [crew chief] Donnie [Brown] and we put a little rubber in the left rear. That was just enough to keep the thing where we could use all of David Evans' motor. There was a little bit more left in the car, but I just wanted to get in the show safely. That's what you need to do when you're out of provisionals. We're happy with that lap. I'm very happy with the whole team. They've come a long ways. The car is driving good. I can't wait until Sunday."
