Quote:

“We tested at Martinsville a few weeks ago and it went well and I learned a lot. We got a chance to go back and forth and make adjustments to find what works and what doesn’t. It really gave me a chance to learn the track and get prepared for the race. It’s going to be nice to get back to racing after a few weeks off. We’re coming off our best finish of the year as a team, I’m going to try to carry that momentum with us into this next stretch.”

Quote:

“I’m looking forward to Martinsville this weekend, it’s a tough place to race and win because the racing is so physical and aggressive. I’ve been lucky enough to have won there in the K&N Pro Series East and I had a couple strong runs there last year. As a team we’ve been getting stronger every week. It would be great to close the deal on Saturday and get my first win with GMS and lock ourselves into the playoffs.”
