They're out

| | Comments (0) |

Martin Truex Jr., driver of the No. 1 Chevrolet for Dale Earnhardt Inc., blew an engine and was knocked out of the race.
"The motor just broke, just blew up, just like that," Truex said. "These guys at DEI do an awesome job with these engines. We only lost one last year. It is just frustrating."
Truex said he though his team had a top-five car and was racing with the leaders when his engine blew.
"We have been running like this for a while and we can't ever catch a break. I am just sick of it to be honest with you.
"We didn't have any warning. Just out of the blue. We had a restart there and I was running behind the 20 (Tony Stewart) there and the race was really good, just out of the blue, the motor let go."
