Nelson Piquet Jr. on Richmond International Raceway:
“I am looking forward to returning to Richmond and racing under the lights on Friday night. We had a pretty good car there in the spring so hopefully we can use those notes and continue to make it better. Richmond has two grooves which makes for some really fun side-by-side racing. The big key for us is finding the right setup with down force and grip; I think if we are able to do this we could have a great night. My guys have worked hard all week so hopefully we can bring the WORX Yard Tools Chevy home with a solid finish.”
