RAM DRIVER QUOTES “Every time you win the week before, it always boosts your team, boosts your self-confidence going into the next week. Everyone is all fired up from the previous week. Your confidence level is just sky high when you win the week before. Kentucky is definitely an odd place, a big mile-and-a-half that’s fairly flat and it’s really rough. It’s got a lot of bumps in it. You’re going to get loose getting into three. It’s really flat and there’s a bump right there at your lifting point. Turning in the center there is huge and not wearing out that right front since you’re turning so much.” -- Ryan Blaney

DODGE QUOTES: “It is as rough as Atlanta but the difference is that Kentucky has a little more grip whereas Atlanta is a little more worn out. A lot of the things that we do with our cars now are affected by the bumps. You have to find a compromise about what’s going to give you speed for a couple of laps and what’s really going to stay there over the long run. We felt like we were pretty good there at the start of the race in June. As the track cooled off, we kind of lost our handle on the track a little bit. We’ve tried to work out a couple of things over the past few months since we’ve been there to get our mile-and-a-half program a little bit better.” --Sam Hornish Jr.

This weekend, Roush Fenway takes its Chase hopes to New Hampshire Motor Speedway, where it will look for a strong follow-up to last week’s outing at Chicagoland.

Justin Lofton, driver of the No. 6 Lofton Cattle Chevrolet Back to the Bluegrass State... Justin Lofton and the No. 6 Lofton Cattle team return to Kentucky Speedway to compete in Friday night's Kentucky 201.

Third time's the charm at Kentucky... Cale Gale will make his third NASCAR Camping World Truck Series (NCWTS) start at Kentucky Speedway this weekend. In their last visit to the 1.5-mile track, Gale and the No. 33 Rheem team had a fast Chevrolet and a strong run going, but a late-race accident resulted in a 25th-place finish for the Sunoco Rookie of the Year contender.

TEAM CHEVY IN THE GARAGE NEW HAMPSHIRE MOTOR SPEEDWAY– ALBA COLON – PROGRAM MANAGER, NASCAR SPRINT CUP SERIES – CHEVROLET RACING: “This weekend, the NASCAR Sprint Cup series heads for New Hampshire Motor Speedway, which is one of my favorite tracks and places that we visit during the year. There is no other track like it on the circuit. It is fast; and almost a flat one-mile oval. With the long straights and flat tight turns, it is definitely a handling track. It is fun to drive!

Eagle Raceway, Eldora Speedway and Lernerville Speedway are three very different and distinct race tracks, but they all have one common attribute — they are three of the highest-banked venues on the World of Outlaws schedule. Kraig Kinser will compete at each of the tracks this week, as the series wraps up a swing through the Heartland and begins to head east, as the season continues to wind down.
