“I’m really looking forward to getting back in the car in Texas. Kansas didn’t go how we wanted it to and we’ve had two weeks to get ready for this weekend. We know what we need to do in order to have a chance at making it to the last round of the Chase and I know my guys on this Leidos team will give it all they have to get it done.”
"It's a long race at Texas, so we're definitely going to have to be patient and make sure to keep our No. 44 Albertsons Ford out of any carnage. I've found some success from all three series at Texas, and I'm looking forward to being back and hopefully finishing at the front after 500 miles."
"We will have a real big focus on trying to make sure that we can maintain some grip and not get really, really loose like we have the last couple years. We've got some great momentum heading there after great finishes for the No. 43 Smithfield Ford in Talladega and Martinsville, so hopefully we can keep the positive upward trend going and get a solid finish this weekend."
“I really enjoy racing at Texas. It’s been a good track for me in the past and I feel like we’ve made some positive changes with our cars. Texas will be a good place to take what we’ve learned so far this season and see what we’ve got.”
Going to Texas, I have a lot more confidence in this style of racing. A lot of things will carry over from Charlotte that I hope to capitalize on at Texas this weekend. I know everyone at B.J. McLeod Motorsports will have us a solid ride ready to roll for Saturday,” stated King.
“Since moving up to the XFINITY Series, I’ve learned a lot more about racing,” states Black. “One of the biggest lessons I’ve learned is when to be aggressive and when to be patient. Knowing when to race hard and when not to is important to being successful on the track, so having learned that lesson early on has helped me a lot.”
The Round of 8 continues this weekend at Texas Motor Speedway with Joey Logano sitting fifth in the Chase standings, four points behind fourth-place Kyle Busch and six points in back of Denny Hamlin and Matt Kenseth for second and third. Logano has one series win at Texas with that coming in the Spring of 2014.
“I always look forward to Texas as Eddie Gossage (track president) and team always put on a good show for the fans. Earlier this year, we ran solidly in the top-10 before getting caught up in an accident. If we can play the right pit strategy, execute on pit-road, and stay out of trouble then we should leave Texas with a strong finish.”
