Edwards on Texas:
“Last week in Martinsville was fun and we are looking forward to Texas Motor Speedway. The track has been great for us and winning the pole there last year was a blast. We are headed back there in our Fastenal Ford with winning as our only goal. Eddie Gossage and the gang at Texas always make it a fun weekend and I look forward to shooting some pistols in Victory Lane.”
