I have always run well there, but we need to get some wins. Bristol would be a great place for us to get back on track. This is a very fast track and things happen quickly. You have to keep your momentum up at all times, so you have to handle good, have a good motor and drive hard. You just can’t give up anything to anyone there.” Dennis Setzer on his finish at Nashville Superspeedway (8/14): “We had a pretty good Silverado today and looked like we could get a top-five or maybe even a top-three but we killed ourselves in the pits. Two bad stops and we went the wrong way on a change late in the race. This was a very disappointing race.” The Crew Jackman – Danny Cieslinski Gasman – Tim Rice Catch Can – Jimmy Frazier Front Tire Changer – Marty Houston Front Tire Carrier – Darrell Haskins Rear Tire Changer – Tony Tolley Rear Tire Carrier – Robert Huffman The Truck- “Filmore” Filmore is a brand new truck in the Morgan-Dollar fleet and only has two races under its belt, Dover (2004) where he finished 18th and IRP (2004) where it finished 12th.
