On the Nashville Superspeedway:
“Country music, and great food. I cannot wait to get my boots on the ground in “Smashville.” The Rackley Roofing 200 is going to be electric. Our oval package has shown speed at the past few NASCAR Camping World Truck Series events – so, let us get to line dancing at 170 mph.
“It is the last race of the eight-week stretch. I am excited for the No. 44 Big Dog Energy Chevrolet Silverado team to end it on a high note in the country music capital.”
