QUOTES

Stenhouse, Jr. on racing at Kentucky Speedway:

“Kentucky is one of the greatest tracks we race because of the energy level that the fans bring to the race track is awesome. We’ve won two 1.5-mile races this year so I feel certain that we will have a strong run at Kentucky. Sam’s Club and their exclusive brands of Member’s Mark Angus Beef and Castlewood Reserve are on our car this weekend so hopefully we can put them in victory lane.”

Crew chief Mike Kelley on racing at Kentucky Speedway:

“Last year this race was won by fuel mileage which I feel will play a factor in the race outcome this year as well. We’ve had a lot of success this year with our 1.5-mile track program so we will bring that knowledge into Kentucky. Kentucky is a flat 1.5-mile track that creates side-by-side racing. Our goal is to leave Kentucky with a top-five finish and gain some points in the championship standings.”
