JEFF SIMMONS (#17 Rahal Letterman Racing Team Ethanol Dallara/Honda/Firestone)
Yesterday you came close; today it looks pretty solidly in. Are you happy with it?
“Pretty happy. We wanted to be quickest today, to get the little bonus that you get. But we are happy to get into the show. We made a lot of progress. Really, everyone on Team Ethanol Rahal/Letterman Racing had done a great job. Scott’s (Sharp) car is pretty solid, too. We both have a pretty good starting position for the race. The rest of the week we’ll be working on race setup. We’ll try to work together some and figure out how to make our cars work better in traffic because once all 33 cars are on the track at the same time, you’re pretty much never alone. ”
