Boris Said on Sonoma:
“All year long I wait for two weekends, Sears point and Watkins glen. I always feel like a little kid at Christmas time when I think about getting behind the wheel of a cup car at Sears Point. I’m really looking forward to getting behind the wheel of the No.32 Ford Fusion for Go Green Racing and driving the wheels off the thing.”
