QUOTE WORTHY
Wallace on racing at Bristol:
“I love racing at Bristol and in Tennessee. Growing up a huge Vols fan it’s really cool to be racing in Vol Country. This place is a ton of fun to race on and hopefully we can keep our streak going and get a couple spots better than sixth with our Leidos Mustang. I’m definitely looking forward to getting there this weekend.”
