QUOTE WORTHY
Wallace on racing at Watkins Glen:
“Watkins Glen is going to be fast this weekend. With it being freshly repaved we are really going in with a blank slate. I’m looking forward to getting there and turning some laps on Thursday with our Cheez-It Mustang and getting back in the swing of making rights and lefts.”
