JASON LEFFLER, No. 38 Great Clips Toyota Camry, Braun Racing
Finishing Position: 2nd
How was your race tonight?
"It was great - uneventful. The first lap I got into Brad Keselowski and spun him. They just all checked up getting into (turn) one and after that it was a pretty uneventful race. As uneventful as you can have here at Darlington when your inches off the fence and trying to keep from hitting that. The guys did a great job and my car was really a solid top-five car all night. Pretty proud of them to keep clicking off top-10s and top-fives, we're going to get us a win here soon."
Did you feel you had a car to win tonight?
"I would like to tell you that we had something for him (Kyle Busch), but we were running for second. You never know on the restart because everyone's car runs good for one or two laps. Our car was stout, but I was running my own race and concentrating on the 16 (Matt Kenseth). Right now that is the only way we're going to beat him (Busch) is when he has issues like that. If we keep running these top-fives you can take advantage of stuff like that."
What's changed with your team this year?
"Obviously we've had a lot of new faces around the shop and a renewed enthusiasm. Todd Braun (owner) has given us everything we need to run up front. Without Great Clips, Toyota and the Braun family we wouldn't be able to do what we do."
