Eric McClure’s Pre-Race quotes:

“We really need to get this monkey off of our back, and hopefully Richmond is the place to do it.š I love short track racing but the results don’t always reflect that.š We struggled here in the spring, but I’ve run ok here in the past so I’m optimistic we can finally have good finish here this weekend.”
