QUOTES
Stenhouse, Jr. on racing at Richmond International Raceway:
“We’re coming off a huge win at Atlanta. Richmond is a fun track to race because it is the typical short track racing. We have been fast there in the past but have come up short. Hopefully we can get our first back-to-back win in our No. 6 Ford Ecoboost Mustang.”
Crew chief Mike Kelley on racing at Richmond International Raceway:
“We have momentum on our side right now. We’re bringing the same car that we finished fourth with in the spring. We will focus on getting our No. 6 Ford to turn in the center for good drive off. The key is to execute on pit-road, stay up front and out of trouble. If we can accomplish those three things, I feel confident we can get this No. 6 Ford back into victory lane.”
