QUOTE WORTHY

Edwards quotes on the Subway Fresh Fit 500:

“I haven’t wrecked a car for a couple of days, so I hope our luck has changed,” exclaimed Edwards. “Phoenix is one of my favorite tracks and I had my first pavement race there in 2001.  Phoenix has always been a great track for us and we have had a lot of success there.  Subway is a huge part of our team and I would be proud to stand in victory lane with them this weekend and winning the Subway Fresh Fit 500.”
