David Reutimann Quotes:
Richmond “Richmond holds a special place in my heart - it was the first race that I made in a NASCAR Series. In 2002 I qualified at Richmond in Joe Nemechek’s Busch car and ended up finishing 16th. ”
“I know my finishes have not indicated my feelings for this track. I have just run into some bad luck at Richmond in the past. Actually, I think it’s a fast track that is fun to race on, and is definitely fun for the fans to watch.”
Thoughts: “The #00 Domino’s Pizza team and the guys at Toyota are continuing to work hard on our COT cars – to make us competitive. This weekend is not only a COT race, but it’s also an impound race, which means we have one practice to get the #00 Domino’s Pizza Toyota ready to qualify and race on Saturday night.
