It was an up and down day for CMS. The first half of the race Gary and Todd traded the lead while Doug got a speeding penalty on pit road. Doug was never really able to recover from the penalty but was able to stay on the lead lap. On Lap 55 Gary and Todd had a collision entering the pits. Then on the very next restart Doug lost control of his car and spun collecting Gary. Todd was able to rebound for a 5th place finish with a damaged car.

2 IN A ROW!!! Caldwell MotorSport had an up and down day. Having a car in the top 5 through most of the race and having a couple toward the back of the pack. However it was a different car at the front at different times. Driver of the 82 Dodge Gary Caldwell drove toward the front for the first portion of the race before having problems on the track. Doug Caldwell Driver of the 66 Dodge had troubles as well. Obviously displeased with Matt Kenseth after the race he was unable for comment.
Todd Caldwell was the story of the day. having problems early in the race he came down onto the #78 causing himself to spin. Fortunately once AGAIN the COT proved to be durable and they were able to work there way up through the field passing one car at a time until battling with Tony Stewart at the end.
"This is an unbelievable team!" Todd Caldwell said after exiting his car in victory lane. "The driver screwed up and got into the wall and the team fixed it and won the race for us."


When we caught up with Gary Caldwell driver of the # 82 Zerex Dodge we got the following comments. I was really happy with my car today and I really believe we had the car to beat . I got caught up in some unlucky situations and had to fight my way up through the field a few times. I had a car that handled better the longer we went but unfortunately that didn't happen to often . At the end of the race I had worked myself back up to 12th place but I got overeager to get into the top 10 and I overdrove my car into turn 2 on the final lap and it got away from me leaving me with a 16th place finish. I thought Caldwell MotorSports did an outstanding job getting the finishes they got considering all of the on track situations they got caught up in. It's nice to see Todd leading the points and I think with a couple of races to get back focussed Doug with get back in the top 35 and start climbing the points standings. I have done some testing at LasVegas and think it will be an exciting race. The things I learned testing is that your front right goes away with about 10-12 laps to go on a fuel run and also to pass the key will be patience . I think the only safe places to pass are entering the turn if you are already under them or exiting the turn if you have the momentum.

Well we caught up to Doug Caldwell Driver of the #66 Logitech Dodge and he was very dissapointed with todays race saying he has no idea what Matt Kenseth was thinking when he drove straight into him and ruining his day, and his chances for a decent finish. Doug says he will just have to step it up a little and move up in the points standings. He really is proud of Teammate and brother Todd. And says Gary did well for for Caldwell Motorsports also.

Caldwell motersports to change manufacturer

Well it seems that Caldwell Motorsports will have a new look this year with them going fromm Chevy to Dodge. I have not spoken to Gary #82 or Todd #58,but Doug #66 said he is happy with the change and thinks they will have a good 2008 season. Doug says he has a couple new sponsors that he hopes to do well for.

Crashes

Wednesday February 27th ,2008

The Rain has clear from California. Even though Denny Hamlin Led a race high 43 laps he failed to close the deal. Carl Edwards ended up winning the race for Roush Fenway Racing. While Caldwell Motor Sports led 0 laps.

Well we just caught up to Doug Caldwell Driver of the Pepsi #66 and this is what he had to say " I have no idea why Mark Martin would cut down in front of me the way that he did but that was a Rookie move. I guess when you are racing as tight as we were tonight at the beginning something is bound to happen. I guess I will just have to come up some points in the coming race at Las Vegas and that is what I will do".

Heading over to the #82 XBOX car of Gary Caldwell we asked what his take on tonights race was" well I was under the weather the last few days and really was not sure how I was going to do today I fealt I had a strong car but I really was wore out at the start of the race I guess my goal tonight was just to finish the race and get some points and I look forward to next week at Las Vegas"

Well after talking to the #66 and the #82 we were real interested it what Todd Caldwell #58 Adidas had to say." this was about all he had to say "We have got to figure something out here. I fought my ass off all night and had nothing for those guys. It's really frustrating but we will figure it out"
