| 12:47:23: | WHAT REALLY AMAZES ME AT THIS TRACK IS HOW HIGH THE CARS CAN COME OFF TURN FOUR AND GO DOWN PAST THE START FINISH LINE. THEY GET RIGHT UP TO THE WALL, INCHES OFF IF THAT. THE WAY THEY COME SO CLOSE TO THE WALL AT THE POINT REMINDS A LOT OF WENATCHEE. I LOVE WATCHING THE CARS AND AM AMAZED AT HOW GOOD OUR DRIVERS ARE. |

| 17:07:44: | QUESTION: APPROXIMATELY WHAT PERCENTAGE OF THE QUESTIONS SUBMITTED TO YOUR ARE ABOUT SARAH? DO YOU HAVE ANY SENSE AS TO WHETHER THE OTHER DRIVERS WELCOME THE ATTENTION THAT SARAH BRINGS TO THE SERIES, OR IS THERE SOME RESENTMENT OVER THE AMOUNT OF ATTENTION SHE GETS?
ANSWER: SHE GETS A LOT OF ATTENTION, BUT THERE IS NOT MUCH RESENTMENT. I FEEL GOOD SUPPORT FOR HER FROM THE OTHER TEAMS. THEY REALLY ALL ARE A GREAT BUNCH OF DRIVERS. NASCAR IS LUCKY TO HAVE EVERYONE OF THEM. |
| 17:06:31: | THEY JUST BARELY SEEM TO WARM UP AND THEY BRING OUT ANOTHER GROUP. NOT REALLY A CHANCE TO PRACTICE A LONGER RUN. I AM THINKING BECAUSE IT IS A SHORTER TRACK, ALTHOUGH THE CAR ON THE TRACK NOW HAS QUITE A FEW LAPS IN, AT LEAST 10 |

| 16:49:01: | QUESTION: WAS THERE ANYTHING UNUSUAL ABOUT HOW HE HIT THE WALL OR THE CONFIGURATION OF THE TRACK THAT CAUSED THE CAR TO GO UP LIKE THAT? IT SEEMS SORT OF UNUSUAL FOR HITTING THE WALL.

| 16:48:16: | QUESTION: ALL THE DRIVERS NEED TO RAISE HE!! ABOUT THE LACK OF SAFETY

| 16:44:47: | QUESTION: IS THE #7 WOODS CAR THERE?
ANSWER: I DID NOT SEE HIS CAR HERE TODAY |
| 16:44:10: | QUESTION: WHICH CARS ARE ON THE TRACK?
ANSWER: 44, 54 & 9 ARE ON THE TRACK |
| 16:41:53: | CORRECTION ON THE FIRE SAFETY TRUCK. IT WAS A NASCAR SAFETY TRUCK, BUT SINCE IT IS NOT AN OFFICIAL NASCAR DAY, IT LEFT THE TRACK TO GET GROCERIES. |
| 16:40:14: | QUESTION: GREAT PICTURES, THANKS. HOPE THE TRACK WILL BE OK
ANSWER: THEY ARE PRACTICING THE WEST ON THE TRACK RIGHT NOW. IT SEEMS TO BE HOLDING UP SO FAR, BUT WITH THAT EXTREME AMOUNT OF HEAT, WHO KNOWS WHAT THAT WILL DO LATER ON IF ANYTHING |
| 16:39:05: | QUESTION: THE TRACK'S WEB SITE SAYS QUALIFYING IS TOMORROW AT 5:35 PM--AS FAR AS YOU KNOW IS THAT STILL CORRECT?
ANSWER: YES |
| 16:38:55: | QUESTION: IF THEY HAVE SAFETY TRUCKS WHERE WERE THEY WHEN THE CAR WAS BURNING? HOW ABOUT THE 30 SECONDS THAT KOGA WAS IN HIS CAR WHILE IT WAS BURNING? I HOPE THEY DO SOMETHING TO IMPROVE THE SAFETY FOR EVERYONE.

| 16:08:54: | THEY ARE RUNNING A STREET CAR THROUGHT THE ACCIDENT SCENE TO CHECK FOR DAMAGE? |
| 16:07:06: | QUESTION: TAKUMA NEEDS TO LAUNCH A BARBECUE SAUCE THIS WEEK, LIKE TONY STEWART AFTER HIS BIG FIRE.
ANSWER: THE DIFFERENCE HERE IS THAT THIS TEAM DOES NOT HAVE THE SAME KIND OF BUDGET THE CUP TEAMS HAVE. THIS IS A LOT MORE DEVASTATING TO KOGA'S TEAM. |
| 16:05:15: | THERE IS ONLY 1 GUY DOWN THERE NOW WITH A PUSH BROOM AND HE IS NOT WORKING WHERE THE CAR WAS ON FIRE. I JUST TALKED WITH SOME NASCAR OFFICIALS AND THEY ARE SAYING THERE DOES NOT APPEAR TO BE ANY DAMAGE FROM THE FIRE. BUT THE CAR IS GONE. IT IS VERY SAD FOR THAT TEAM. |
| 16:01:34: | QUESTION: IS THERE DAMAGE TO THE TRACK FROM THE FIRE?
ANSWER: THEY ARE DONE WITH THE INITAL CLEAN UP OF THE TRACK. I AM NOT SURE OF WHAT THE EXACT DAMAGE IS AT THIS POINT. |
| 16:00:52: | PHOTOS HAVE JUST BEEN POSTED ONLINE, A LINK CAN BE FOUND ON THE FRONT PAGE. |
| 15:44:04: | QUESTION: GLAD THAT TAKUMA IS OK. YOU SAID THERE IS A PARAMEDIC DOWN IS HE OK?

| 15:21:26: | AND THE DRIVER IS UNHURT. |
| 15:21:18: | QUESTION: DON'T LET NASCAR CATCH YOU TAKING PICTURES, THEY WILL CONFISCATE THEM.
ANSWER: I DON'T KNOW WHY. IT IS ALL RACING. IT IS THE AGONY. IT IS LIFE. NO ONE IS TO BLAME HERE. |
| 15:19:34: | I AM GOING TO TAKE A BREAK. |
| 15:19:23: | SO THIS CLEAN UP WILL BE LENGTHY. |
| 15:18:39: | INSTANT OUT WITH THE FIRE TRUCK. |
| 15:18:19: | I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THIS IS DOING TO THE TRACK. THANK GOD THE FIRE DEPARTMENT IS HERE. THEY HAVE GOT IT OUT INSTANTLY. |
| 15:17:50: | CRACKLING TIRE S POPPED WITH MINI EXPLOSIONS |

| 15:10:45: | FIRE STILL BURNS ON THE TRACK |
| 15:10:37: | THIS REALLY SUCKS |
| 15:10:15: | I NEVER DID SEE A MEDICAL CREW GO TO KOGA. BUT HE LOOKS OK. IT IS SAD HE IS WATCHING THE CAR BURN. |
| 15:09:43: | STILL FLAMING. NO FIRE TRAUCK HERE. THEY ARE STILL TRYING TO FIGHT THIS THING WITH FIRE EXTINQUISHERS |
| 15:09:18: | THERE IS NO FIRE TRUCK HERE. THEY ARE USING FIRE EXTINQUISHERS. FIRE STILL FLAMING DOWN THERE BETWEEN 1 AND 2. I THINK I SAID TURN 3, I BEANT TURN TWO |
| 15:08:26: | HE HIT THE WALL AND LOOKED LIKE A GAS FIRE THAT FOLLOWED THE GAS DOWN AND THEN THE FIRE JUMPED TO THE CAR AND STARTE A HUGE FLAME. |
