PRO STOCK BIKE
"I'm not sure why he was late. I guess he didn't put
it on the chip soon enough. The bottom line is that we each
go for the win no matter what.”
--
G.T. Tonglet referring to the lack of team orders after teammate
Andrew Hines posted a lethargic .127 reaction time against
him in the final
"I'm happy we were able to improve as much as we did.”
-- Antron Brown on jumping from 13th to 6th when qualifying
ended
"We'll be okay.
We were able to step it up today, despite falling a bit
on the ladder. I can assure you that I'm ready to go racing
on Sunday."
-- Angelle Sampey,
Brown’s teammate, on dropping from 5th to 8th on the
final qualifying list
"At the start Chip popped up and double clutched which
upset the transfer of weight on the motorcycle and that
slows it down anywhere from one to two tenths. It will jump
around and bounce.” -- George
Bryce, co-owner of Chip Ellis’s ride, on their second-round
loss to Brown
"He was putting up some big numbers all weekend long,
so I knew I had to take a shot at the tree. Even if I cut
a perfect light, it probably would not been enough to beat
him.” -- Sampey on going red
against number-one qualifier Tonglet in round two
"Given the dominance of the Harleys, I had to get
as much of an advantage at the tree as I could. Obviously,
I just went too far.” -- Brown
on his redlight loss to Hines in the semis
