Carl Edwards on racing at Michigan International Speedway: “I remember we ended a long losing streak at Michigan in 2007. Any time you win at Michigan it’s big and it’s big especially for the guys who race for Jack. His business is based in Michigan. We really appreciate everything Ford has done for our sport, Jack and everyone at RFR, so it’s a very special place to win."
Jason White on Michigan: “We all know that Michigan is a wide and fast race track. But the new pavement has taken it to a whole new level as we saw with the Cup cars. We were lucky enough to test there at the Goodyear tire test recently and there is so much grip in the track which really allows the truck to handle through the corners. Michigan has always been a horsepower track and we have an awesome engine package from Roush Yates Engines and that will play a crucial part for us this weekend. I think the groove on the new pavement will widen out as the race goes on and we will very likely have an awesome three-wide finish.”
