NASCAR WCUP: Pocono 500 Post Race Notes, Darrell Waltrip

22 June 1999

66 DARRELL WALTRIP Big Kmart/Route 66 Taurus "I don't know if he's a rookie anymore or not. You'd think somebody I helped as much as I did Park that he wouldn't run into the back of me, but he just went into the corner and lifted me off the ground and spun me around. It's the end of my day. It's frustrating. I was kind of minding my manner and stayed out of trouble all day. We had the fuel mileage thing figured out and we weren't gonna have to stop again, but sometimes people with fast cars don't do too good."

"Park ran into the back of me down there and got me in the air and lifted me off the ground...turned me around backwards and hit the wall. It's too bad. The Big Kmart car was running good. We were gonna make it on fuel. That was our plan and I think we would have had a decent finish, but young guys get impatient sometimes."
