Levi Jones on the Team’s Top-10 performance at Richmond International Raceway:
“In terms of a pavement race, we were pretty happy with our weekend. We’ve definitely begun to move forward. Any time you can pick up a top-10 finish, you’ve had a decent event. We’ve been working very hard to improve our pavement program and I think that last weekend was the beginning of a new trend for us. With two pavement races this week, we’re going to have even more of an opportunity to use what we’ve learned in the past few weeks. We’ve been pretty fast on the bigger tracks in the past month, so hopefully we’ll be able to give Chevrolet and Bass Pro Shops another win this weekend. ”
FAST FORWARD…
