“I’m looking forward to getting back at it this weekend in Las Vegas. It’s a fun track with a lot of speed and a lot of grip. We had a decent run there in the spring and this team has really been on a roll lately. Hopefully we’ll be able to go out and put on a good show. I’ve got a lot of friends and family coming to this race, so it should be a lot of fun.”

“Las Vegas is usually really smooth and fast and it’s a lot of fun to drive. We had a very good run in the spring, but came up just short. It would be awesome to go out and get a win, especially in the Gallagher family’s backyard. I’m pumped to have CMR on board with us for more races. We won Canada for their first race with us, and hopefully we’ll have more trips to Victory Lane with them this season. Not many sponsors get a win in their first race with a new team.”
