Greg Van Alst Pre-Race Quote:

On The Milwaukee Mile: “I am ready to get back after it this weekend from The Milwaukee Mile. My NASCAR CRAFTSMAN® Truck Series debut with Young’s Motorsports did not go as planned, so I hope for a significant rebound on Sunday afternoon.

“I am also hoping that my previous experience at The Milwaukee Mile will prove to be somewhat beneficial throughout the race. I know I am still learning how to manhandle one of these trucks, but for an inaugural event, I believe any driver with any experience on the surface will have a slight advantage.

“I hope we can have a good run on Sunday afternoon and look forward to Kansas Speedway in a couple of weeks in our No. 20 CB Fabricating Chevrolet Silverado!”
