QUOTE WORTHY

Bayne on racing at Fontana:

“Fontana is a great track to race on. It has a worn out surface that really allows for some great racing. You can run on the top of the track or the bottom through the corners. I always enjoyed racing there in the XFINITY Series and am excited to hit the track this weekend in the No. 6 AdvoCare Ford Fusion in the Cup Series. Hopefully we’ll have a strong run.”
