News and Notes

This week: Logano finished 30th in the spring race at Texas. "Texas was one of the most difficult races for us as a team earlier this year," said Logano. "We struggled. I struggled. We've come a long way as a team since then; I've come a long way as a driver. Zippy (crew chief Greg Zipadelli) and the Home Depot team are building new and better cars and we are running much more consistently, especially the second time we visit these tracks."
Last week: Logano was happy after finishing third at Talladega. "It was a good run," said Logano. "These races are interesting, man. I had a good restart (with two to go) and was pushing the 9 (Kasey Kahne), the 9 was pushing the 26 (Jamie McMurray) and got that whole row out ahead and just kept digging for all we were worth. It would have been interesting if we'd have had one more lap. You never know. I think anything could have happened."
Etc.: Logano said he did a lot of experimenting during the Talladega race to learn as much as he could. "Throughout the whole race I put my car in different positions trying to learn as much I can about being around cars and what helps and what doesn't," the rookie driver said. "I tried to make as many friends out there as I can for the end of the race and be positioned right there at the end."
