Colin Braun

“I was hoping to get my first win in my home state of Texas last
weekend, but the next best thing would be to win at Michigan. That is
home for Jack Roush, Con-way Freight and Ford Motor Company so it would
mean a lot to win there. Roush trucks have won this race the last two
years in a row so it’s up to me to continue the streak.

This team has
been running really well since Kansas in April, but we had a string of
terrible luck in May at Lowe’s and Dover. With a top-five finish in
Texas I’m hoping we got the monkey off our back and can continue to
get solid finishes and gain back a lot of points. We gained 39 points on
10th place at Texas so we just need to keep the momentum going.”

Crew chief Mike Beam on racing at Michigan International Speedway:

“I know Colin will have a good truck at Michigan this weekend. This
is the same truck Travis Kvapil won with at MIS in 2007, and Mark Martin
finished second in it in 2006. We had to put a new front & rear clip on
it, and we replaced the entire body except the roof after Lowe’s, but
it’s been in the wind tunnel and on the k-rig this week. Colin got a
top 10 at MIS last year, so after a top five in Texas last week we are
expecting a good outcome.”

statistical category. He has a driver rating of 90.1 (sixth-best), an

laps in the top 15 with a percentage of 72.3 (878 laps) and seventh in
laps led with 67 laps.
