QUOTE WORTHY
Bayne on racing at Kansas:
“I’m ready to get to Kansas this weekend. Our mile-and-a-half program has been strong so far this season and I’m very confident we can have another great run this weekend with the AdvoCare Ford. We’ve had a lot of momentum here recently and hopefully we can continue to build off of that and stay up there in Chase contention.”
