They didn't interview every other driver, just the well known ones, former champs, etc.

They didn't show every other qualifying attempt, either. There was about half a dozen trucks that weren't shown. I doubt there's anything underhanded to that, just luck of the draw and timing as it relates to commercials. They are going to work around making sure they show the trucks with well known drivers, likely to run at the front of the pack. The DLR trucks and drivers aren't really noteworthy, so the director is going to choose to run the commercials during that time rather than during Dennis Setzer, Ron Hornaday or the Bodine's attempts.

I am interested to find out why the Potencia Truck didn't try to qualify. Ironically, no matter how it ran, it would have insured that a DLR truck got into the race! If it ran faster than the 01, it would have been in the race, while the 01 would still be out. If it ran slower than the 01, it would have pushed the 01 into the race by being one of the 3 slowest trucks.

Yes, I hope they are making the most of their presence at the track. Maybe we'll get some pics or vids. I don't know if we'll get a PR since the trucks didn't qualify. Maybe a PR about promotions with a passing mention of the trucks' status.
