“We got the car on such a knife’s edge that we make an adjustment and it helps and the next time we make the same adjustment it just kills it again. I was frustrated at times. Mike (Shiplett, crew chief) did a good job staying calm because I wasn’t very good at that.” – AJ Allmendinger, who finished seventh.

"It was killer, man. It was painful, I'm telling you. I didn't have anything to do. I was kind of lost. I kept looking around: 'Man, what's next on my schedule? Where am I supposed to be right now?' I swore I was forgetting something." – Race winner Kyle Busch, on his restlessness after not running the Nationwide race.
