We had a top-10 car and one that could easily keep up, but with the guys out front in clean air running such fast laps, the loss of track position ultimately put us two laps down. Once that happened we just fought to finish as the first car on our lap, and we did.
More Quotes from Robby Gordon:
We worked really hard today. I can say one thing there isn't anyone in this garage that has worked harder than we have to be competitive. For a one-car team to be able to run with these guys, I'm proud of my guys and proud of what we're doing. I'm just disappointed with the result we got today.Robby Gordon
Just happy with the whole organization -- where we've been, where we're going. To make it into the 500 will definitely get the ball rolling. You know, it's hard to keep guys' morale up when you miss the biggest race of the year. And we've got some momentum now, and hopefully we'll be able to maintain that momentum.

I will pay him back. NASCAR, listen. He's getting it back big time.

It doesn't have to be me, but if somebody thinks I did them wrong then-bam-you're around backwards and a lap down before you know it. Hopefully I've raced everyone clean so far this year, and I can have a good top-10 finish. I'm just going to do the best job that I can in qualifying and make the smoothest, smartest decisions in the race that I possibly can and score the best result.

Just not being a new race team. Pretty much every guy on this team was here last year. That allowed us to work on our cars and be prepared over the winter time. I can remember a year ago the night before Bristol, finishing the car late at night on Thursday night and then come to Bristol.

This is an incredibly large and confusing area of the earth it's very easy to trust your racing instinct instead of the route book and your navigator ... I won't make that mistake again.
