Kasey Kahne Budweiser Shootout Practice Notes

Friday, Feb. 11, 2005
Daytona International Speedway.
Budweiser Shootout Practice 

 

KASEY KAHNE (No. 9 Go ManGo! Dodge Charger)

NOTE: Engine problems in the first practice session forced the team to
replace the motor in the Budweiser Shootout Charger.

"I was in a real heavy pack. Two cars were in front of me, and the rest
were behind. I just stayed up high and hoped everybody would go low.
Everybody did. It was pretty easy to miss. I didn't move around much. I
just stayed up by the wall and stayed out of the way. The car looks
good. We've just got to get out there and get some drafting practice. We
won't be able to get out for any more of the first practice, but we'll
have it ready to go for the final session."
