Quotable:
“I always look forward to returning to Las Vegas Motor Speedway; it’s one of my favorite tracks on tour for many reasons. I’ve had some great success there over the years, including a few wins and a few poles, and I’m hoping to replicate some of that ‘Vegas luck’ this weekend. Our immediate goal is to stay in the Top 10. Obviously, we’d love to leave Vegas with a trophy, but right now, the priority is going rounds so that we put ourselves in a better position heading into Pomona where points-and-a-half comes into play. We’re all pretty bunched up there, and it’s going to be a fight ‘til the very end.”
