“Watkins Glen last year was probably one of the most fun races I’ve been a part of. Our car was really good, conditions were tough with the rain early in the race and trying to drive up through the field. It’s always a racetrack that has a special place in my heart knowing it’s where I got my first Cup win. I really believe we can go there, have a solid points day and hopefully have a shot at the win."

I’m actually going to have to relearn an H-pattern again for the Xfinity car. Extra track time is always good, but the Xfinity cars and the Cup cars are vastly different from each other this day and age. I don’t anticipate there being a whole lot of learning going on.”

We know that Watkins Glen is one of our weaker road courses, but we look forward to hopefully going there and having an opportunity to do something really cool amongst the package we have been building on over the last couple months. I'm excited to see what kind of fruit it bears and go have some fun.”
