Grand Prix of St. Petersburg
Thomas McGregor, Team Exclusive Management Inc. / Dairy Queen, No. 7
McGregor finished today's race seventh, after starting eleventh.
"The team gave me a great car all weekend. We didn't get the result we wanted because I didn't get the position in qualifying. That really put us behind the 8-ball all weekend. The silver lining this weekend was we were fast in the race. I just can't thank my Exclusive Management Inc. / Dairy Queen team enough. I am really happy that we are fourth in the standings. I am really looking forward to the rest of the year."
Shelby Blackstock, Team Starstruck, No. 8 Blackstock finished today's race eighth, after starting in that same position. He advanced up to sixth, but lost two positions after the gearbox locked up.
"The race started out really good, but on the second or third lap, we started having gear issues. It wouldn't go from fourth into second. That then hurt our braking, but other than that the race was really good. The team will take a look at the gearbox and next race we will do even better."
