Quotable:
“Looking forward to getting back to Houston and into Pennzoil country. We got beat up a little bit these past couple of races and we just want to go to work and show what we’re made of. We’re hoping Houston can be our breakout race. Our goal is to qualify well and we’ll take it from there. I’ve got full faith, full belief in my team. The only way you can beat resistance is with persistence and we’re just steady at work with it and ready to go out there and show out for all of our Matco distributors and our supporters at Global Electronic Technology. We’re ready to go.”
