KYLE BUSCH, DRIVER OF THE NO. 5 KELLOGG'S/CARQUEST IMPALA SS: (ON THE NEW SURFACE AT BRISTOL.) "It's completely different. There is nothing about that track that is the same as it was before. I'm looking forward to it, though, because we don't really know what it's going to entail. I heard the late model races have been great so I'm interested to see. It should be fun."

BUSCH: (ON HIS POINTS POSITION FOR THE CHASE.) "I think we're in a good position for the Chase points-wise. I would have liked to get some more wins and get the bonus points, but it's still OK. We're solidly in, and ready to make a go at it."

BUSCH: (ON RUNNING ALL THREE RACES.) "I think running all three races will help me get used to the new track surface. During testing, the track was kind of boring for me because the old Bristol had so many different characteristics. I'm sure it will still be an exciting race, but I think that it will take a few winters to get the track re-seasoned."

ALAN GUSTAFSON, CREW CHIEF OF THE NO. 5 KELLOGG'S/CARQUEST IMPALA SS: (ON THE CHANGES AT BRISTOL.) "Even though we won at Bristol in the spring, we are going back to a brand new race track. The folks at Bristol Motor Speedway did a great job in the repaving. It will be a little different race than we've had in the past, but I think it will still be a great event for the fans. I know there's a lot of anticipation. The track will be slick until we get some rubber down, but it should still be a typical Bristol race. I can't wait. I want the sweep."
