DAVID STARR – No. 10 Int’l Maxx Force Diesel Ford F-150 (Finished 14th) – “Our International Maxx Force Diesel F-150 was making some bold moves, but they just weren’t bold enough. We had a good truck all day long. The lap times were great. At the start of the race we were just a little tight, but after we made our first pit stop, the Circle Bar crew went to work and they gave us what we needed to rotate there in the center. Track position, we pitted under green and I don’t really understand how we lost a lap, but we did. I did everything I could to try to stay in front of Hornaday or at least run with him to get the lucky dog if the caution came back out, and I ran the front tires off of it because I was running so hard. But we had a good truck today. The team did a heck of a job. My teammate Rick Crawford had another good run, but I’m disappointed because we had a better truck than where we finished. It was a good race for us, but the finished result doesn’t show it. At least there’s a lot of progress with our program. I’m trying to be cheery, but I’m disappointed because we were better than where we finished. It was still a fun day and a good race for our whole Circle Bar Racing team, and I’m looking forward to next week.”
