News and Notes
Nov 4
This week: Reutimann won the pole for the spring race at Texas and led 40 laps before ending up 11th. He was 10th in the fall race a year ago. "We have run pretty good there the last two times, so I am looking forward to this weekend," said Reutimann. "We want to finish the year on a high note, and we think Texas is one of the places where we can run up front."
Last week: Reutimann was one of 13 cars involved in the next-to-last-lap accident at Talladega, and he ended up 26th. "You get in a situation like we had with that red flag and then have a green-white-checkered (finish) and guys running out of fuel and stuff -- it gets pretty wild there toward the end and you don't know what to expect," Reutimann said. "Just a bad day."
Etc.: This has been a breakthrough year for Reutimann. Going into the season, his best career finish was a ninth. As the year winds down, he has one win, five top-five finishes and nine top-10s and is 16th in the Sprint Cup standings. Reutimann finished 22nd a year ago. "We want to add to all those numbers," said Reutimann. "We've still got three shots to do that."
