        QUOTES

        “I feel really good about our chances in Vegas. I was very encouraged by our speed in California, and we already know a few things we can tweak to be even better. This weekend will be our first intermediate track together, which makes up a substantial portion of our schedule. Hopefully, we’ll be off to a strong start, and continue to build as a team going forward. Im running double duty this weekend with TRICON Garage in the Truck Series on Friday night, so I’ll be a little extra prepared when I climb into my Fire Dept. Coffee Toyota GR Supra this weekend. I can’t wait!“
