Ragan on racing at Phoenix International Raceway:
“I’m excited to head out to Phoenix this weekend after testing the new surface last month. We have run well on the short tracks this year and I look forward to the trip out west. With two more races left we are doing all we can to win another race.”
Crew chief Drew Blickensderfer on racing at Phoenix International Raceway:
“Phoenix is a completely different track than last time we raced there, so it will be important to hit the track fast from the get-go to get a jump on the competition. We will need to pay close attention to the Truck and Nationwide races to get an idea of what to expect on Sunday. Everyone is going into the event with a lot of unknowns, so hitting on things early in practice will help.”
