“I’m super excited to be at Lucas Oil Raceway. This is the only oval that we race all season so it’s very important that we get a lot of practice and testing in while we are here to make sure we are fast. We have tested here a couple times and we have really good pace. I’m looking forward to the race since we only get to do this once a year. The Freedom 75 and other support races are all pretty exotic compared to what we are used to. It’s my first time being in the Freedom 75 so I am looking forward to it.”
