QUOTES

Stenhouse, Jr. on racing at Dover International Speedway:

“Dover is one of my favorite tracks. We had a tough weekend at Charlotte but we’ve put that behind us and are looking forward to getting to Dover. The track is fast but also very challenging. The turns are unique because of the way you drive up out of them. We finished in the top-five both races there last year so we feel confident that we can get another top-five finish in our No.6 Cargill Beef Ford.”

Crew chief Mike Kelley on racing at Dover International Speedway:

“Dover is one of the tracks that we go to with a concrete surface which is tough on our cars. We had two strong finishes there last year so I look for a similar result. We will look back at our notes and get our No. 6 Cargill Beef dialed in so Ricky can go out and compete for the win. Track position is crucial so the key is to stay up front and execute on pit-road.”
