Dave Blaney on Talladega Superspeedway…“We were pretty pleased with the way the Talladega test went a couple of weeks ago, and we think we’re ready with a little bit better stuff than we had when we were there in the spring. Obviously, our main objective is to get the Caterpillar Toyota in the show, and then after that we’d like to come away with another top-10 or top-15 finish like we had last weekend in Kansas. There are a couple of teams racing pretty hard back there for the 35th spot in owners’ points, and we were really pleased to be able to cut the margin between us and the No. 21 in half in one race. That proves there is still enough time for anything to happen.
“It should be an interesting weekend with the COT cars. It seemed as though most people were pleased with the way things went in the test. They’re nice and solid, and I really think it will be a lot of fun out there in drafting. I think you’ll be able to suck-up to people a lot faster that we could before. We’re looking forward to the experience. ”
