Quotable:
“Firebird is where I got my Top Fuel license in 2008 before heading to Pomona, and I’ve also won that race three times, so I definitely have a lot of great memories from the Phoenix track. We’re looking forward to bouncing back this weekend after our most recent race two weeks ago where we had a first round loss. We want to have a strong qualifying performance that sets our weekend off on the right note. We have a big Matco Tools presence there with FVP, and we’re looking forward to having a great weekend and showing out for our partners. Here we come, Firebird, let’s see if we can fire that trail.”
