JOLIET, Ill. -
Todd Patterson, Mopar Pro Stock Dodge Dakota, (7.904/169.15 8th
position)
"We have been fighting air flow problems with the truck and we
demonstrated that on our first run. The car left good and ran well to
the half-track then it almost shut-off. On my second pass we made a few
changes and that helped. The truck still seemed to be flat in high gear
and we need to address that in the morning. Our early numbers are
respectable, I think we were fifth to the 660-foot marker and then we
ran into some problem. We're getting closer to where we want to be and
that is encouraging."
Bill Henderson, Mopar Pro Stock Dodge Dakota, (7.853/172.59 5th
position)
"Not bad for our first hit on a new race track and what a great race
track it is. Dale (Coyne) should be proud of what he had provide the
racing community. Overall I am very pleased on how the Dodge Dakota
responded today. We had pretty good numbers throughout our runs, and
actually picked up four-hundredths on the last pass. We had to make some
changes to both our clutch and gear and we didn't want to due both at
the same time. We changed the clutch first and that improved our time.
Tomorrow we will work on the gear and look to pick up another
five-hundredths. The track doesn't have a bump on it and it will even
get better the next few days."
