“2014 has been a great year for our team,” adds Mittler. “I can’t thank or give enough praise to everyone who allows us to race at this level. Without the talent and dedication of our people, whether in the office, the shop, crew, sponsors- everyone, we would not be here in the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series and I truly appreciate each and every one our people.”

"I feel a ton less pressure on me. There is not one sleepless night that I've worried about if we're going to win this championship, how can we screw this thing up, how can we lose this thing. Last year every two hours I'd wake up from about mid-season on, but now if it's meant to be it will be.
