Quotes
Don Kreitz, Jr.
“That was cutting it too close! I could see the King (Steve Kinser) starting to
lose his tires there at the end. I don’t know what he ran (for tire compound),
but you could really see he was spinning his tires on the straightaways
those last few laps. Davey (Brown) and I talked about
it before the race tonight, and we set the car up to get down the straightaways when the track got slick, and it won us the
race. It’s hard to make up much ground in the corners here, but if you can get
down the straightaways you can usually make a move. I
didn’t want to wait until the last lap to make my move, but I thought I screwed
up by showing myself too early. I’m sure Steve knew it was me, and that’s why
he went to the bottom to try and block me, but there was a lot of dust down
there in (turn) 4, and when he got into that it let me get a run on the inside.
I didn’t get through 3&4 at all on that last lap, and I pretty much killed
all of my momentum. I figured he would just wing it in on the top on that last
lap, and I was just trying to get back up to speed off of the last corner, and
it just barely took off in time.”
