“Road racing presents a tough set of scenarios. You have to be careful with the gear box, the braking and staying on the race track. So those are three challenges of road racing to start with. I like Watkins Glen and I’ve been fairly successful there, even won in the trucks and had some good finishes. I like that track and I’m looking forward to this weekend.”
“We had a really great car at Road America earlier this year, so I’m excited to bring that same car back to the track. It’s really cool to have Cheez-It on our Mustang, especially since this is such a big race weekend for Kellogg’s. I know we’ll have a strong car, hopefully we can play the road course strategy right and end up in victory lane.”
