Quote
“Richmond is one of the lowest grip asphalt tracks that I have ever been to. It’s so wild to come off of turn two and see how much pedaling you have to do. I have had dirt cars with more forward bite than what I get at Richmond. It’s a super cool race track, it’s a great old surface and it’s just the right size too. It’s short track racing but there is so much room to spread out and experiment with different lines and is really fun to drive. With a top-five finish at Bristol last weekend, we qualified for our first ever Xfinity Dash 4 Cash event at Richmond. With one hundred thousand dollars on the line, you better believe I will be racing my tail off to bring it home.”
