Brian Frisselle Quotations

I guess it's just more cars for us to pass. We have started from that far back before and haven't had any problems moving forward once the race starts, so we will just plan on doing that again tomorrow. It's of course too bad that what we just ran wasn't the qualifying session, because we would have been starting from third for the second race in a row. But the car is strong, so we'll just go for it tomorrow.

I am really disappointed that I had to get out of the car. Burt had done a great job, and we were definitely on-track for a good top-10 finish with the Rx.com car, but I just had to get out of the car.

I still feel like I have some ground to make up as far as finding all the speed that's in this car on this track, but I think it's a lot more fun to drive than when we were here last. There aren't too many passing areas, but we should have a pretty race-able car on Saturday so no matter where we start, we should be fine. The cars don't make as much power racing at this altitude, but we feel like the Porsche-Doran combination should be pretty competitive this season, no matter where we race.

I think we are both still learning off of each other so much. It's nice to have a teammate that's your brother. In racing, you always kind of have to watch your teammate closely and strive to be better than him. But when it's your brother, it's not like that. We're still competitive with each other, but we're not trying to beat each other-we're trying to make each other better.

It's huge having my family's support. I don't think I would have been able to do this without them. To be able to fall back on their support when you can't really support yourself and you feel down, it's really big.

He had a run on me and I took a defensive line, but I think he expected me to move, because he just swerved back into line and punted me in the right rear. It's really pretty frustrating of course because we had such good track position, and we ended up having to fight from a lap down.

I came up the hill on the restart, and all I could see was smoke and cars spinning into the wall, so I just squeezed as far left as fast as I could, and fortunately I missed the whole thing. It was just like Days of Thunder!

This team is really like a family. This is my third year with the team and a lot of them have become like family to me.

This is the first race track we ever went to, and we never missed a race growing up. So to have the chance to race there, as brothers sharing the same car, is really just an amazing opportunity for us. I'll never forget the battles we saw here growing up with Unser and Andretti and now we have the opportunity to add our names to the history of this track. Hopefully we will be able to do that this weekend.

I was as fast as anyone out there, and the only car that passed me was the leader, so we know we could have had a great result if we hadn't been hit. But the car was fast and that's really encouraging for the rest of the season.
