QUOTE WORTHY

Chris Buescher on racing at Daytona International Speedway:

“I am ready to get back to Daytona!  It’s been a long offseason, and it has been lacking seat time, so we are excited to get back to racing.  I know that we will have a fast Cheez-It Ford Mustang in Daytona and we plan to take it to Victory Lane.”
