JIMMY SPENCER --23-- Team Winston Taurus (Finished 20th)
-- "At the beginning of the race the car was just absolutely really great
and the track changed some. When the track changed we adjusted on the car
and really hurt it, so we had to go back to where we were and we ended up
losing a lap or two there and once we got it back where it was we were
capable of staying on the lead lap, but it was too late. It was
unfortunate that no caution came out and the leaders were going so fast
early in the race. It's not the finish we wanted, but it could always be
worse. We really abused the tires (at the start of the race). We took a
lot of time off our tires where the other guys in the front didn't and
that's because of qualifying. If we would have qualified better we'd have
been alright."
