Travis Kvapil on Racing at Texas Motor Speedway:
“Texas is a special track for me because it is the track that I got my first NCWTS win as a rookie in 2001. I have always enjoyed coming here because it is fast, racy, and has a lot of character. The age and the bumps allows the groove to widen out throughout the race especially when the tires wear. It should be a good race for our GasBuddy Chevrolet”
