• Peters captured the pole position for tonight's race -- the 64th pole for Toyota since entering the NCWTS at the start of the 2004 season.

BRIAN SCOTT, No. 16 Albertsons Toyota Tundra, Xpress Motorsports
Finishing Position: 2nd
Is there any consolation finishing second to Ron Hornaday, Jr. -- who has won five straight races?
"He's the man in the truck series. I congratulate Ron (Hornaday, Jr.) on five in a row -- that's an awesome accomplishment. I hope some day to accomplish something like that in my career. Our Albertson's Toyota Tundra was just great. I wish I could have taken a Toyota to victory lane tonight for Toyota and for everybody here. The fans -- I have to thank all of them for sitting through the rain storm. We took a run at it. We just weren't good enough. I'm real proud of my guys. I'm really happy about second -- that was a good run. Everybody wants that Les Paul guitar by Sam Bass -- it's the coolest trophy out there. Tonight wasn't our night to get it and Ron (Hornaday, Jr.) -- he's a legend, he's the man."

Did you have anything for Ron Hornaday, Jr. on the last restart?
"We had a restart there and I didn't know if he was okay on fuel or what. But, as soon as we took the green and went into the corner I was just tighter and figured out we had a right front tire going down. We didn't have the front end grip and the turning like we needed to, to take a shot at him (Ron Hornaday, Jr.). I tried and he was just awfully good. But, second for our Albertson's Toyota Tundra is pretty good tonight."

What was your thinking taking two tires on the last pit stop?
"On the competition caution (lap 35) we took four tires and almost everybody else took two -- we just wanted to look at everything. We didn't think that left side tires were wearing as much as right sides. So, on the next stop that allowed us to go for just two right sides and keep our left sides. That got our track position back that we surrendered so badly on the first stop. It gave us a chance to make a run at the win, we were just a little too tight to do it."
TIMOTHY PETERS, No. 17 Strutmasters Toyota Tundra, Red Horse Racing
Finishing Position: 4th
How was your race tonight?
"It was pretty wild. That's what you get in the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series. Our Strutmasters.com Tundra really ran good. We sat on the pole. Clean air was just so important and we just got stuck back there. We just got too tight. All in all it was a great night. I have to thank Chip Lofton at Strutmasters and Tom DeLoach at Red Horse Racing -- they've given me an awesome opportunity and we're now going to Bristol."

TAYLER MALSAM, No. 81 One Eighty Toyota Tundra, Randy Moss Motorsports
Finishing Position: 9th

T.J. BELL, No. 11 Red Horse Racing Toyota Tundra, Red Horse Racing
Finishing Position: 10th

TRAVIS KVAPIL, No. 51 Miccosukee Resort & Casino Toyota Tundra, Billy Ballew Motorsports
Finishing Position: 11th

BLAKE FEESE, No. 15 Billy Ballew Motorsports Toyota Tundra, Billy Ballew Motorsports
Finishing Position: 12th

TODD BODINE, No. 30 Ventrilo Toyota Tundra, Germain Racing
Finishing Position: 13th
What happened at the end of the race?
"If the tires didn't give out (near the end of the race) we would have had a fourth-place finish with the Ventrilo Tundra. If I got close to Timothy (Peters), the truck just pushed really bad. We were definitely a top-five Toyota if we hadn't had to pit at the end."

MIKE SKINNER, No. 5 PC Miler Navigator Toyota Tundra, Randy Moss Motorsports
Finishing Position: 14th
Can you get back into the championship points race?
"Well, if we run like we've been running -- of course we can. Right now, the KHI stuff with (Ron) Hornaday, Jr. -- they are in their own zip code. I've said it again, these guys (at Randy Moss Motorsports) have done a lot with a fourth of the amount of money it takes to do this right. I'm very proud of these guys. We missed it this week. We missed it right off the trailer. We never ran good in practice. We put up some decent laps. What happens is you get to thinking you're not as bad as you really are. But, I knew we were bad and we never got it fixed. Everybody at Randy Moss Motorsports worked their tails off. The pit stops were actually halfway decent tonight. I want to make sure to thank PC Miler Navigator and Exide -- and everybody that works with us -- keep the faith."

STACY COMPTON, No. 60 SafeAuto Insurance Toyota Tundra, Wyler Racing
Finishing Position: 15th

DAVID STARR, No. 24 Zachry Toyota Tundra, HT Motorsports
Finishing Position: 18th

TERRY COOK, No. 25 Cajun Industries Toyota Tundra, HT Motorsports
Finishing Position: 19th
