QUOTES

Stenhouse, Jr. on racing at Bristol Motor Speedway:

“I love racing at Bristol especially under the lights. They repaved the top groove of the track since we raced there last time so that creates some uncertainty for us. In the spring, our No. 6 Ford was stout. After two road course races I am ready to get back to an oval track. We have NOS on our Mustang this weekend so it would be ‘NOSsome’ to get them to victory lane.”

Crew chief Mike Kelley on racing at Bristol Motor Speedway:

“There is some uncertainty going into Bristol due to the repave of the track. Racing under the lights at Bristol is always exciting. You deal with a lot of elements that are unlike any other track. Pit road has a lot of congestion and is very tight so our No. 6 team has been working all week getting ready for this type of environment. Ricky is an excellent short track racer so I’m confident if we can stay out of trouble that we can get the No. 6 NOS Ford Mustang into victory lane.”
