DALE JARRETT, No. 44 UPS Toyota Camry, Michael Waltrip Racing:
Finished: 12th
How was your race tonight?
"This was a learning experience for us and that was exactly what we needed. We need to get out there and compete to get some ideas as to how to make the cars better. We've made tremendous gains and tonight it helped a lot to get to run with those other fast cars. Now what we need to do is come here Thursday with a great qualifying package and get into the race. I think if we can do that, then we can run competitive for 600 miles. But the run here tonight definitely gives us hope for next week."

What are your expectations for next week in regards to the evolution of the Toyota engine?
"All we can do is hope that what they are going to give us will perform on the race track the way they are telling us it should. We applaud them for making the changes and listening to us to try to give us what we feel like we need. This is another step toward the continued improvement and hopefully it will help all the Toyota teams."

Do these types of races turn into wars of attrition?
"To some extent, you just want to stay clean and avoid any wrecks that happen in front of you. But at the same time, track position is very important with these segments being only 20 laps. We had pretty good track position there during the second segment, but had a bad vibration and had to come down pit road. That put us back a bit and we couldn't really challenge after that."

Does this give you a little confidence heading into next weekend's race?
"We've had some pretty good success on the mile-and-a-half tracks this season, and we had a decent test here a couple weeks ago, so the team is pretty confident heading into next weekend's Coca-Cola 600. We'll just come here next weekend and give it our best."
