Sorenson on racing at Gateway:

“I am looking forward to returning to Gateway in Braun Racing’s No. 32 Dollar General Toyota. I enjoy racing there and the track has been good to me in the past. Trent Owens [Crew Chief] and his team have turned out some really strong cars this season which I’m looking forward to using to my advantage on GIR’s long straightaways. I really think that we can get to victory lane this weekend. I’ve been there twice before and would love to go again with this Dollar General team.”

Equipment Information

The No. 32 Dollar General team will compete with chassis #028 in this weekend’s Missouri-Illinois Dodge Dealers 250.
This is the same chassis that the No. 32 team ran at New Hampshire Motor Speedway in June, 2009. Vickers started 8th and was poised for a top-five finish when contact from behind in turn four of the last lap relegated him to a 12th-place finish.
