KENNY WALLACE ON TMS:
“Texas is a handling race track and you have to get through the corners.
Over the years it has become a much better track to race on because we’ve got
more than one groove in it. It’s a very fast race track and a lot of fun to
drive but getting your car to handle and keeping the tires on it is key.”
KENNY WALLACE ON MEMPHIS:
“Our team has worked really hard to get us back into contention every week.
Memphis we qualified well and even led a few laps. Unfortunately the pit
strategy didn’t play out like we had hoped it would and we finished 14th.”
KENNY WALLACE ON THE POINTS BATTLE:
“There is a lot of pressure on us to perform well every weekend. We fell
out of the top-10 a few races back and now we are doing all we can to get back
up there. I have never finished outside of the top-10 in the NASCAR Busch Series
so you can imagine how determined we are coming into these last few remaining
races.”
