Scott talks Iowa Speedway

“Iowa is an excellent facility, I’m glad NASCAR added it to the Nationwide Series schedule. Iowa is perhaps the only modern short track that used all the factors that create great racing. The surface has tremendous grip and the progressive banking gives us a couple of lanes to pass. There’s always a lot of side-by-side racing. I feel the fans out there really appreciate the great facility too. With all that great racing, the people in the area take notice and really support the sport. Iowa is one of those events that you look forward to. The racing is great, the fans are great. It’s the reason we do this every weekend.”

Scott on expectations

“We’re looking forward to putting last week behind us. The problem after two top-10 runs is that the whole team is expecting great things. We never could get a good handle on our drive off the corner at ORP and we ended up finishing 17th. While that is very respectable, we have an expectation now that we can compete week in and week out in the top-10. Looking forward to Iowa, we are very focused on returning back to top-10 form. Looking at what the differences were across all four Braun Racing teams and what we did differently the weeks before to net those top-10’s.”

Scott on off-track antics

“I’ve been keeping pretty busy off the racetrack here lately too. Last week I was fortunate enough to play in the Nationwide Children’s Hospital Pro-Am. It was really great being able to support Nationwide Insurance for all the things they do not only in NASCAR, but in golf and more importantly, their Children’s Hospital. This week I’m getting ready to go to Pocono for some more golf for Todd Bodine’s Charity Golf Tournament. Before I leave for Pocono I’ll be attending a skype board meeting for the Joe and Katherine Albertson Foundation back in Idaho. It’s a great cause committed to improving education in the state of Idaho.”

Equipment Information

The No. 11 AccuDoc Solutions team is bringing chassis No. BR50 for this weekend’s U.S. Cellular 250. BR50 was last seen at Chicago where it brought home Scott’s career best third-place finish.
