GOODYEAR NOTES AND QUOTES: Mark Keto, engineer:
"This is the only race on the Busch Series circuit that has the same tire
recommendation on the left side and right side.  On the oval tracks we typically
run a tougher compound and a bigger circumference on the right side to help the
cars turn left.  On a road course we don't run a stagger, and for this race, we
also have the same compounds all the way around.  We will also have rain tires
on hand at the event if needed."
