David Ragan on racing in the Nationwide Series at Darlington Raceway:
“It is a tough race track that you must be prepared to deal with. If you have good equipment and a solid pit
strategy it can be very rewarding. I have one start at Darlington, so I have to rely on last year’s experience
and my crew chief’s knowledge of the track. The new pavement will be a handful but I am confident we can
get around unscathed. If we do our jobs we will come away with a solid finish.”
Crew Chief Mike Kelley on racing in the Nationwide Series at Darlington Raceway:
“The lady in black” is a special place for all of us in the garage. It is a very fast track that has gotten the best
of many good drivers. I am anxious to see how the new pavement will affect track conditions during the
race. If we can qualify in the top 10 it will work to our advantage because our Discount Tire Ford Fusion is
pretty stout. I lost the closest race in NASCAR history at Darlington in 2003. That place owes me one. We
will try our best to tame the track and come away with a great finish.”
