Pit Lane Interview

Q. Not quite enough there at the end. What more did you need?

ERIK JONES: Probably to come off lead in pit road. We were all kind of going the same speed. I felt like we were probably a little bit better than both of them. I couldn't get the run. I thought I had the 45 there with maybe four or five to go. There was a little hole on the top. He squeezed up and filled it. Racing for the win.

Yeah, it's hard to be that close. Would have liked to have had another one. We were right there all day, good speed with the Dollar Tree Camry. We just need more of that.

Hopefully we keep these cars rolling and get one soon.
