Quote:

“I always enjoy Las Vegas. It was my first mile-and-a-half track when I started racing trucks. We had a solid run in the spring and led some laps, hopefully it will be very similar this weekend. My guys bring me fast trucks every week, but we need to have a perfect execution this weekend if we want to stay in contention for the championship and advance to the Round of 6. Points racing is not my favorite, but I know Trip (Bruce, crew chief) will make the right calls and keep our championship run alive.”
