Quotable: "I didn't want to get out there too far and get in that lapped traffic. It was pretty hectic tonight," Franklin said. "I know Casey (Roberts) was right there on the back door. They kept signalling me to just stay low. I didn't want to get up there and race with those other guys because it was just too dusty, and I didn't (want) to take no chances."
