2012 Daytona Qualifying Quotes

Robby Gordon (No. 7 SPEED Energy Dodge Charger R/T) Qualified 48th

“We’ve run well on restrictor-plate tracks in the past in our SPEED Energy Dodge. We barley made the show at the fall Talladega race and led (the race) for a while. I’m in the same race car that we ran in Talladega. We qualified around 43rd and was leading by lap 15 or so. We have a shot at the (Daytona) 500 still. We just need to be there at the end of the 150 on Thursday to make a run at making the 500 on Sunday.”

Ok, the real question is how many people are starting to come down with a strange cough on Monday in order to set yourself up to be able to couch drive along with RG on Thursday?
