Ryan Nawrocki: "Well, its very easy to see that this is a whole new ball game from the TM Pro Cup, one thing I really noticed was that team mates seemed to work well togther, EVERY time I tried to work with my team mate, Tony Durbin, He just dumped me, and I'd fall back. It was very clear that we both had top five cars, its a shame that he didn't work with me more, I hope he's still not upset about me fireing him from the Tm cup, that was nothing personal, just a buisness deal, I hope that we can work togther in future races and get National Racing some great runs..."

Kevin Colley: "It was my fault I caused the wreck. I was too aggressive and tore up a bunch of good race cars, including my teammate, Dale Roswell. I'm real sorry to all those guys that were involved in the wreck."

Tony Durbin: "Ryan says I wasn't working with him, and I was trying, but I don't know if he was having problems or what, I felt like I was going to run into him because he was noticeably slower."

When asked about the #76 car, Tony had this to say:

"Leroy's been around here for years... I would have thought he would have known better then to sit there and run around the track and hold everyone up when you're in 42nd... whoever made that call for him to hold up traffic ought to be fired, because me and Steve could have won that thing 1-2."

Tyrone Stanley: "That big crash was as much my fault as it was Kevin's. We're still cool. Didn't have a car that could stay in the front, just ain't fast enough."

Leonid Roderick: "I probably lurked at the back a little too long, and didn't get much of a chance to blast to the front. Other then that, we had a pretty good day and I'm real impressed with what the guys put together."

Alexis Rainsford: "Some people used their heads. Some people didn't. We're a two car team, but barely have the funding to make it possible. The #98 car was as good as we could make it."

Danny Savin: "It was like MarioKart on 'roids."
