Ragan on racing at Dover International Speedway: “Dover is a very fast and exciting race track and one of the more physically demanding tracks of the year. The Roush Fenway teams have typically been fast at Dover, so it’s always a track we look forward to, and a place we think we can get a win. We hope to improve on what we did there in the spring and look for another good run to try and move up to 13th in the points.”
Crew chief Drew Blickensderfer on racing at Dover International Speedway: “Dover is a very fast mile race track with lots of banking, which leads to the ability to run multiple grooves and makes passing easier. The UPS team has had some good runs in a row and we look to keep that going this weekend in Dover.”
