Quotes:
“A lot of the preparation work for this weekend at CTMP was already completed before the first series race last weekend. This week the focus was on fine tuning to make sure we’re on our game from the start of practice on Saturday. We want to be dialed in right away and let Andrew do his thing, he’ll be up near the front for sure. And I can’t say enough about the progress Glenn is making too, he’s really focused on improving his skills every time he’s in the car”.
-David Wight, WMI Principal
