Talk about winning in your hometown.
“It’s great. Thank you guys – thank all the fans for coming out. Rowdy Nation getting loud. It’s an honor to just be able to drive in the Truck Series. I appreciate being able to come out here with KBM – my own team – and have some fun and work on our stuff and make sure we have good stuff. We had a really good Zariz Chevy tonight. Can’t thank all my guys and girls enough – everybody at KBM and Rowdy Manufacturing. Billy Ballew is onboard with us today – if you need a used vehicle check him out. A lot of great memories with Billy and another great memory here tonight in Vegas. We’ve got a whole new group and still winning – so it’s fun.”
