Miguel Paludo on driving at Kansas Speedway

“I love the track at Kansas Speedway; I really enjoy racing at the 1.5-mile tracks. When we went to Kansas in 2011, we ran in the top 10 for most of the race, but we got super tight at the end and finished in the top 15. I’m looking forward to getting to Kansas because these are the first back-to-back races of the season. It’s always good when you have a lot of races week in and week out to keep up your momentum.”
