QUOTES
Carl Edwards on racing at Lucas Oil Raceway: “It will make the Raceway Park race more special this year knowing we won’t be here next year. I really love racing at Raceway Park and I have a feeling it won’t be my last race here, even if it is a silver crown race or something in the future.”
Crew chief Mike Beam on racing at Lucas Oil Raceway: “We are bringing the same chassis that we finished second with at Iowa . Carl is an expert short track racer. Getting the Fastenal Ford to roll through the center and to have good forward drive off the corner will be two things we focus on for LOR. We hope to be celebrating again in victory lane on Saturday night.”
