Ford Performance NASCAR: NCS Michigan (Joey Logano and Todd Gilliland Accident Quotes)

JOEY LOGANO, No. 22 Shell Pennzoil Ford Mustang Dark Horse

(Retired early due to multi-car accident on Lap 116)

WHAT DID YOU FEEL? “We had that right-rear tire go flat right before that, which put us back there down a lap and then I think the 5 just spun out in front of me and kind of caused a big wad and a Daytona-type crash. There was nowhere to really go. I couldn’t steer it left, so I just committed to maybe if I could slow it down enough, I could center punch it, and it wouldn’t be that bad. That was my only option there. Unfortunately, we got knocked out a little early. We were fighting for probably a top-10. We weren’t that great, if there were more wrecks we could maybe have ended up with a top-five but we will move on.”

TODD GILLILAND, No. 38 Grillo’s Pickles Ford Mustang Dark Horse

(Retired early due to multi-car accident on Lap 116)

WHAT HAPPENED? “I am not too sure. We were fighting for the Lucky Dog and I thought we were in a pretty good position. I ran to the bottom into Turn 3 and I was trying to get up all the way back to the wall. I am pretty sure I was just looking in my rearview camera, and everybody wrecked. I am not too sure. I was trying to get up into a hole, and the next thing I knew, we were all in a wreck. It is unfortunate. I thought we were clicking away.”
