"I was delighted by the speed of the Canadian Club car. It was the fastest four-lap average I've had all week. It was a really, really great job by the whole Andretti Green team: all of my teammates, the engineers, everybody. Tony and I have been working very closely all week. We're all on the same set up here and we're getting closer and closer to having the same type of car, which lets us help each other and that is big. We didn't have the speed to go for it again today, but we (Andretti Green Racing) got five cars in today. It was a great day for AGR."
