DRIVER TODD GILLILAND:
“I’m looking forward to going back to the Richmond Raceway. I haven’t had the best results there, but we qualified 6th in the spring, so I think we have a solid shot this weekend to leave with a result we can be proud of. The break was nice, but I happy to be back in the shop and heading to the track this weekend. There is still a lot of racing left in the season and each race is an opportunity to win.”
CREW CHIEF RYAN BERGENTY:
“I think our second trip to Richmond will be a good one. We had a good qualifying effort in the spring, we just need to do it again but capitalize on it. I think we can do that this weekend. The team enjoyed their break but we’re all excited to be back. Each race is an opportunity to earn points and fight for a win.”
