**************
JOEY, LOOKS LIKE YOU GOT WHAT YOU COULD GET IN THIS ONE.
“We just missed the setup pretty bad and salvaged what we could. We just stayed out of the wrecks and tried to get a decent finish.
“I think we deserved to finish where we did, but we could have run a lot better than we did. We were more competitive here last year, so I’m disappointed in that respect. We learned some things, and we know what we can go back with – so that’s the positive.”
DID YOU HAVE A CHANCE TO GAIN ANY MORE SPOTS AT THE END?
“Not really. We were fourth or fifth with 80 to go, but I just couldn’t run the bottom at all. I had to be on the outside to at least maintain my ground. If someone got to the outside of me, they could pinch me down a little bit and get right by me.”
