Danica Patrick (No. 7 Motorola, eighth quick): “Number one everybody seems very excited to have us back here.
Everybody is wanting autographs, they’re excited, they brought their kids out, so it’s obviously a great thing to come back here. We always want to be places where we’re wanted.
“The track has been repaved since I’ve been here. It feels pretty good. It’s smooth. The grip is coming up slowly but surely out there. Overall, the feelings inside and outside the car are good. ”
