Dario Franchitti, #27 Klein Tools/Canadian Club Dallara/Honda/Firestone
"It was pretty tricky out there today. The difference between the darker patches on the
track is significant.  In the afternoon session, we were working on our race car.  We tried to fix a
problem we had this morning and created two more problems, so the Klein Tools/Canadian Club
team will go back on those changes tomorrow and keep working toward a good race car.  I think
this is a track that is more to our liking and we expect to be racing with some of the other cars that
have been out front this year.  There are a lot of strong cars out there, but the Andretti Green
foursome has a reasonably good chance."
