my heat and semi, but I'd just go backwards," Huffman said.
And the main was no different.
"1 really never gave up," Huffman
said. "1 was dead afterwards. It was all
1 had. I ended up behind Button. 1 was
on Button for a while. 1 guess Larry
Ward and LaRocco were right there,
too. Overall, 1 feel pretty good with
the race today. 1 made it through, got
some decent points. Next week I'll be
fit."
Pichon, who held his ground in
eighth, also hopes to be physically better
for New Orleans, and Tortelli, who took
ninth, no doubt hopes for a better day
then, also.
