Heffner might be a little bit of a sleeper, I've got to believe all that experience on the high banks of the Valley will translate well to Eldora.

Bloomquist's setup looks completely different than everyone else.

Are the yellow rules going to be like that for the races?

(IE only yellow while the car recovers itself, then green as soon as it's going again...)

Those tires are way too narrow for the amount of horsepower they are putting down, going to be a lot of spins tomorrow if they can't get any moisture to hold.

No, when a yellow comes out in the race it will be just like a normal caution period.

It's amazing how much the track has changed. I think a lot of the drivers who haven't raced on dirt have had to basically relearn everything about driving.

Bloomquist is getting the power down better than anybody that I've seen so far, I like the looks of that setup too.

There was a spin on the backstretch... no mention. And then JWT goes around for the 5th time.
