I am not going any farther. I tried Snap Chat for a little while but it just wasn’t for me. There are a lot of other ones out there that keep popping up but I am done. I’ve got my three platforms and I will stick to that.”
JOEY LOGANO, No. 22 Shell Pennzoil Ford Fusion – “You are only as good as your last race a lot of times. I have enjoyed it. I think it is really cool and I am excited to get our car out of the museum and see our car again. What won last year is not going to win this year, whether it is what you do inside the car or the setup of the car. It is because the sport is always evolving and getting better. It is great but it is last year and we have to keep looking forward.”
