QUOTES

Trevor Bayne on racing at Daytona International Speedway: “I have been looking forward to getting back to Daytona since the season opener last year.  We were never able to put it all together for an entire race.  We had some bad luck early on, but stormed back to get a top-10 finish.  The July race was the same story.  We are going to be aggressive early and often on Saturday afternoon and hopefully good things happen. To get a win in any series at Daytona is special, but to do it in the 25 Winning Years paint scheme would be that much sweeter. Jack Roush is an icon in the sport and I am blessed to be representing his company and driving his race car at Daytona.”

Crew chief Chad Norris on racing at Daytona International Speedway: “Trevor and I started to gel late in the season last year and that really paid dividends for our race team down the stretch.  With the resources we have at Roush Fenway Racing, sky’s the limit for our No. 60 team. Trevor has brought a lot of excitement and energy to our sport and it is refreshing to see a young guy so eager to compete at the highest level all the time.  I expect a motivated Trevor Bayne this Saturday afternoon.  If we can survive until the end, I believe we have a great shot to win the race.”
