John LaRue, LaRue Motorsports:

"It was a great day, with sunshine, nice weather, Mid-Ohio; what more could we ask for. Two races in one day cuts the same way for everybody, we are a small team so if you have a problem it'll be tough."


Brandon Dixon, Citation Engineering:

"I don't think I had John's pace. I had an essentially a lonely race in second but that is okay."

Austin McCusker, DotWorks Racing:

"It was a last-minute deal to drive this weekend. I started from last and made my way up to third. It was a good race, and I'm starting on pole for the next one so we'll see what we can do."

Rob Allaer (P4 overall; P3 in Masters Class), LTD Motorsports:

"We just lost our front tires, and couldn't keep up the pace. Austin is really fast and ended up catching me in the Key Hole and I couldn't do anything about it. I'm not happy with a fourth place finish, we were hoping for a top three."
