"That was a close one."— K. Bernstein on the .003 margin of victory for Capps over him in round two
“There isn’t anybody who would hold their head down after that race.”— Beckman after losing a close race to a holeshot by teammate Capps in the semis
“We got out there, and it pulled [the tires] loose way out there. So, it was very surprising. It was so windy today, there was sand blowing on the track. The track guys did a great job at cleaning the track every time we ran. Tough conditions.”— Capps on his final-round pass against Hight
"I think I got it a little bit too far outside and it smoked the tires. I never saw Capps, so I gave it a quick pedal and I saw the win light come on in my lane. It wasn't pretty, but we'll take it. I haven't won a lot of races pedaling and I haven't had much luck in Vegas, so I think I had some help along the way today."— Hight alluding to Medlen after running an off-the-pace 5.126 at 282.90 to beat the even-more-troubled 5.592/178.57 combination assembled by Capps
"Trying to race against guys like Dave Connolly and Richie Stevens out of what we don't consider to be the better lane, that's a tough chore. All of these wins are great, and none of them seem easy, but today seemed liked one of our hardest. We dug down and found something special. We got her done and got that Wally."— Greg Anderson on losing lane choice after round one, but still managing to win his sponsor’s event at his car owner’s home track
"We had a consistent racecar through all four qualifying sessions, and in today's last session we didn't quite run the number we were looking for, but we're certainly not frowning on our performance.”
— Jeg Coughlin Jr. after scoring his second-straight pole position in qualifying after a 6.733-seconds blast at 204.26 mph on Friday night
"That's a big accomplishment.”— Jim Yates on earning his 400th Pro Stock round win by defeating Erica Enders in round one. Yates’ first round win came in 1990 and he's competed in 362 races, and won series titles in 1996-97 along with 25 national events in 58 final rounds
