Ragan on racing at Texas Motor Speedway: “Texas is a track that we will bounce back at. We have had some fast cars the last few weeks, just some bad luck to go along with them. Texas is a fast track that suits the Roush Fenway style and Drew knows how to get a car to drive well there.
Crew chief Drew Blickensderfer on racing at Texas Motor Speedway: “Texas is one of our favorite tracks. We’ve run well there the last three times and sat on the pole in the spring. Horsepower, aero and chassis setup are all big factors in getting around Texas. The last three races of the season are all tracks we can run well at, so we hope to get another win for UPS.”
