We were going backwards, but Todd Gordon made some good adjustments and got some speed back in the car. Then we had to work to get our track position back and before that last caution I think we were sixth or so, and, really, that was going to be a good finish for where we ran most of the day. We put four tires on it and got in the right lane on that restart and I think that’s what meant a lot. Getting to the bottom and watching all these guys on old tires and new tires – everybody was rooting and gouging each other out of the way and I was able to just go to the bottom and pass cars and follow (second-place finisher Clint) Bowyer pretty much right through the whole pack." This never-quit attitude got us through this whole weekend from the time we unloaded all the way to the time we leave. To take a race that was going like that and be able to change it over and come home third, I couldn’t be more proud of these Shell/Pennzoil guys.”<strong> POST RACE <a href="http://www.penskeracing.com/news/index.cfm?cat_id=614&cid=51607" target="_blank">Team Report</a>, <a href="http://bradracing.com/news/patience-perseverance-payoff-kansas" target="_blank">Driver Report</a></strong></li> <li><strong>] <a href="person?id=146#content" target="_blank">Juan Pablo Montoya</a> - 4th place, 25th in standings(+2) -</strong>"We wanted the win tonight and if that last caution hadn’t of come out, I think we could have done it,” Montoya remarked post-race. “We knew we would have gotten run over if we didn’t pit for tires on that last caution. Unfortunately we lined-up on the outside row on the restart and were never able to make the jump to get back into the lead. I’m happy though. The Depend Chevy was fast all night and it was a great run for us.”<strong> POST RACE <a href="http://www.earnhardtganassi.com/" target="_blank">Team Report</a>, Driver Report</strong></li> <li>] <strong><a href="person?id=150#content" target="_blank">Jeff Burton</a> - 5th place, 19th in standings(+4) </strong>"We were seventh there and I thought I had the No. 22 (Joey Logano) beat before the caution flag came out. The caution came out and what the heck, we might as well try something. Luke (Lambert) made a good call there and obviously new tires were a lot better. But it was worth a shot. We were going to maybe finish sixth without the caution so to pick up a spot from it was worth a shot. I thought it changed a lot. I thought Kevin (Harvick) and I both got better at the end of the race and some other cars got worse as the race went on. However, Kevin got good at the end of the race. He was his best at the end; we were our best at the end. I think all of that was the track changing and kind of going to our setups a little bit."<strong>POST RACE <a href="http://www.rcrracing.com/news/index.cfm?cid=51907" target="_blank">Team Report</a>, Driver Report</strong></li> <li><strong style="color: #222222;">] <a href="person?id=122#content" target="_blank">Carl Edwards</a> -
