June 6, 1999 - Kevin Cywinski Runs To Career-High Third At Bristol


Kevin Cywinski Runs To Career-High Third At Bristol

Kevin Cywinski, #31 Auto Trim Design Ford F-150 : (started 19 th , finished third) "This Auto Trim crew gave me a super truck last year and they gave me the same thing this year. I couldn't be happier. This is my one-year anniversary with Brevak Racing and we had a bunch of fans in the stands tonight from Auto Trim Design. They saw a good show. The crew did a super job getting this Ford F-150 out front all night long. My crew did a lot of the passing for me. I have to give it all to them. This crew is fabulous. They could go work for any Busch or Winston Cup team. They get me out probably as fast as anyone is the truck series right now. They love to practice pit stops and they take pride in it. Every race when we start, I tell them what they have to give me and they usually do it. We had a really fast truck. We knew it after happy hour last night. It's just one of those things where we have to pick up our qualifying efforts a little bit. Maybe we can start from the front instead of coming from the back all the time. The team is on a high right now and we'll just carry it on down the road."

QUOTES FROM POST-RACE PRESS CONFERENCE:

Kevin Cywinski: DO YOU FEEL LIKE YOU'RE GETTING PRETTY CLOSE TO YOUR FIRST WIN? "We really do. We set our goals pretty high this year and we wanted to run in the top 10 in points and win a race. We've gone to quite a few tracks this year where we thought we could do that and Bristol was one of them. I think that if we consistently finish in the top five and top 10, we'll get our win here shortly." ARE YOU STILL LEARNING WITH THIS TEAM? "Yes we are. This is our one-year anniversary. Bristol was our first race with the team last year. We're finally starting to get back to some tracks that we've been to before. The team is starting to see what I like and our communication is getting a lot better. You can really tell that things are getting better. We'll be a team to contend with in the near future."

Kevin Harvick, #98 Porter-Cable Power Tools Ford F-150: (started fifth, finished sixth) "It was a pretty good day for the Porter-Cable Ford. We've been off a little bit the past couple of weeks on these banked tracks. We're really looking forward to going to Texas. But it's Bristol and we didn't wreck so we'll take the finish and the points. It's been a long weekend and the guys carried us through it. They worked their tails off yesterday to get me out to qualify and they did a super job on our stops today. We had to change a lot on the truck this weekend, so my hats off to them."

Lonnie Rush, #27 Hastings Premium Filters Ford F-150 : (started 18th, finished eighth) "This is a just like a win for me with this team. When we left I-70, the Hastings Ford team was lacking a little bit on manpower. I realized after that race that I was driving for a real racer in Mike Albernaz. We needed some help and we got it today with our pit crew guys. We knew that we could run in the top 10. We might not have qualified on the pole but we did a great job in the race." ....
