QUOTES
Stenhouse, Jr. on racing at Bristol Motor Speedway:
WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING FORWARD TO AT BRISTOL? WHAT APPEALS TO YOU ABOUT THE RACING THERE? “It’s just hard racing and I feel like it’s a driver’s racetrack and we were really fast there the last time. We sat on the pole and we were the only one that could run with Kyle [Busch] for 160 laps until we made a mistake and got a penalty there on pit road [under caution]. Just really looking forward to getting back there. I think we’ve made our cars better since the last time we were there and I think we’ve got a really good shot at winning that race.”
Crew chief Mike Kelley on racing at Bristol Motor Speedway:
“We sat on the pole and ran up front earlier this year at Bristol before receiving a penalty on pit road. We are going back there to redeem ourselves. Hopefully we can get the Coors Light pole, stay up front and get this Fastenal Ford to victory lane.”
