Kelly Smith’s Quotes from Pontiac Post-Race Press Conference

By Art Eckman

On the Sellards/Brown crash:
“Yeah I kinda saw a little bit of the Brown and Sellards carnage. Metcalfe was in front of me. I was thinking points, I want to beat him. Then I saw the big mist go flying in the air when I looked down I laughed and thought to myself I had the exact same thing going on and gas was going everywhere.”

On racing in front of a hometown crowd:
“Yeah I think I was a little nervous at first but getting a good start in the heat and getting second it made me think about positive thoughts.”

Plans:
“I am going to stick around home until Easter and be with the family for a little bit, then go to California to do some testing. I am feeling confident and having a good SX season and am going to try to carry that with me to the nationals.”
