You have never finished outside the top-5 at Texas Motor Speedway in the Xfinity Series. What is it about Texas that suits your driving style so well?
“Texas has always been a really good track for us. I’ve always had fast cars here and that’s the biggest piece of the puzzle. They recently repaved the track so it’s difficult to get a hold of from a setup standpoint because the two ends of the track are so different. It’s all about trying to get through turns one and two since they removed some of the banking, but we’ve been able to do that in the past so hopefully we can do it again this weekend.”
