NASCAR WCUP: DuraLube/K-Mart 300 Post Race Notes, Jeff Burton

20 September 1999

JEFF BURTON --99-- Exide Batteries Taurus (Finished 4th) -- "It was a good run for us, unfortunately, I kept hittin' stuff. A couple of times there was stuff happening in front of me and I just couldn't miss it. It got the nose all knocked in pretty bad and when I'd get behind other cars it wouldn't turn. By itself it was pretty fast, but in traffic I just couldn't turn underneath anybody, but, nonetheless, a good day for the Exide Ford. We came a long way again. It's real neat to see Joe Nemechek win the race. That's pretty cool."

SOME SAY THE POINTS RACE IS OVER, BUT JARRETT HAD SOME PROBLEMS. CAN SOME OTHER GUYS GET BACK IN IT? "It's not hurtin'. I don't know, it certainly is closer now than it was before. There are eight races left, that's a lot of racin' left, so you just don't ever know."
