Ford Performance: Raj Nair Daytona 500 Post Race Quotes

RAJ NAIR, group vice president, Global Product Development, Ford Motor Company – “You can’t ask for a better weekend starting out with the truck race and Brad Keselowski’s truck team winning and then Ryan Reed wining the XFINITY race for Roush Fenway Racing and now Team Penske and Joey Logano with the Daytona 500 championship. Roush Yates Engines for those three wins plus winning the 24 Hours of Daytona a few weeks before that. Roush Yates Engines are right now undefeated at Daytona.”

DAYTONA IS BECOMING A SECOND HOME FOR FORD. “What a start for Ford in 2015. We are now 4-for-4 in all the major races we have competed in. We couldn’t ask for a better start to the year.”

IT MUST BE A GREAT WAY TO KICK OF THE NEW FORD PERFORMANCE GROUP, TALK ABOUT STARTING OFF ON SUCH A GOOD NOTE. “Yeah, I think it is really starting to pay dividends with all the work we have done on the technical front and all the homework we did in the off-season. Whether it is the EcoBoost engine of the FR9 engine all the engines in all three NASCAR series’ I think it really shows the teamwork of working together in a One Ford way and that it can really pay dividends.”
