NASCAR WCUP: Southern 500 Post Race Quotes, Kevin Lepage

KEVIN LEPAGE --16-- FamilyClick.com Taurus (Finished 7th) -- YOU HAD A GREAT DAY. "I don't think great is the word for it. Coming back from a 30th starting spot. We wiped out our primary car with a blown tire the other day and go to a backup car and go all the way back to 43rd and work our way back up to seventh is really something. The guys did a great job in the pits. They got me out and kept getting me spots, making right adjustments. My hat's off to Tony Lambert, he came over and helped Pat Tryson this week and they made some great calls. I'm telling you, what a great performance here. This is what the team needs to go to the next 10 races of the year."

WHAT ABOUT ALL THE TWISTS AND TURNS IN THIS RACE? "We had a top 10 race car no matter how you look at it. We were top 10 and we were gonna be there, we just didn't know if we were gonna be fifth or we were gonna be 10th. We had to just keep working on the race car and we did."
