NASCAR WCUP: Rusty Wallace Post Race Notes, Primestar 500

29 March 1999

RUSTY WALLACE -2- Miller Lite Taurus --

"That's a pretty good run. We qualified 11th and finished fourth, and, I tell you what, we really worked on the chassis there at the end and got the thing flying. I found the groove down there in turn one and two and started working it high and it surely started running good. All I needed was track position. They were reading off the lap times and the lap times were plenty fast to win the race, I just needed track position."

THE LAST COUPLE OF WEEKS HAVE BEEN TOUGH.

"Those two races really killed us. I tell you what hurt us was this air dam and this rear spoiler. The low air dam and rear spoiler just threw our chassis setups way off and we had to change a lot of things and get back to some old time stuff we used to do."

SOME HAVE TRIED TO WRITE YOU OFF THIS EARLY IN THE SEASON.

"Hey man, whenever you're over 40 they're trying to write you off. I'm glad Terry Labonte won today."
