Quote:

“I’m ready to get out there and get after it this week in Kansas. We’ve been consistently bringing fast trucks to the track every race and last week I think we proved that we’re a real contender. I had some success at Kansas last year in ARCA so that helps a little going into my first Gander Trucks start at the track. I can’t thank my guys enough for all the work they put in each and every week. I’ve been gaining confidence in my ability as a driver and I have a lot of faith in my team. I’m looking forward to going out there and trying to get the first win for GMS this season.”

We’ve been building on our program and bringing fast trucks to the track every week. We have a solid stretch of races coming up and we can start to get in a rhythm and build momentum in the coming weeks. Hopefully we’ll be able to rack up a few wins that we’ve been fighting for all year and lock ourselves into the playoffs.”
