Quote:

“I’m excited to go to my first road course race with my GMS Racing ARCA team. It will be a great way for me to get some laps around Watkins Glen before the drop of the green flag Saturday for the truck race as well. As long as we keep our nose clean and run a smart race I think we should have ourselves a solid run Friday.”
