Quote:

“I’m very motivated heading into Iowa this weekend. We’re coming off our strongest overall run of the season and anytime we can race back-to-back weekends it’s good for momentum as a team. I had some success in Iowa last year in ARCA and I really enjoy this track, so hopefully we can go out there this weekend get my first Gander Trucks win. There’s still at lot of money on the table in the Triple Truck Challenge, so I know the competition is going to be tough with everybody going for the bonus.”

Quote:

“I enjoy any chance I can to get home to Iowa Speedway. Winning on Father’s Day weekend last year and having my dad there with me was really special and I’m hoping I can repeat that this year. Iowa is such a fun racetrack to drive and I’ve had some good luck over the years through the different series. There’s still a lot of bonus money up for grabs in the Triple Truck Challenge and pocketing some of that at my home track would be fantastic and really propel us forward moving into this summer stretch.”
