“I’m looking forward to making my first start at Las Vegas. It’s going to be another test for me to just learn the track, it has a lot of speed and a lot of grip so that’s going to be fun. A bunch of my family is coming out to support us this week. It’s about as cose to home for me as the truck schedule gets, so it will be nice to go out and put on a show for them.”

“I’m excited to go to Las Vegas and see what we can do. The GMS Racing team has brought a fast Chevy to the track every week and we’ve been improving as a team with each race. Las Vegas is so much smoother and a lot faster than last week, so it’s going to be exciting to see how things shake out and hopefully we can go out there and put the No. 24 Allegiant Chevrolet Silverado in victory lane.”
