Sorenson on Friday night racing at Richmond:
“I really enjoy racing on Friday nights- especially at a short track like Richmond. Racing under the lights just adds an element of excitement for us as drivers and most of all for the fans. We continue to put up really consistent finishes with this Dollar General team and I’m excited to carry that momentum into the weekend. We have all the right pieces with this No. 32 group- great cars and motors, a solid team and great sponsor in Dollar General. I’m really hopeful we can put all of them together this weekend and get to victory lane this weekend.”
