Edwards on the Sprint All-Star Race:

“ The Sprint All-Star race is a blast and right now we have got nothing to do but go there and win a million bucks, and that’s about as good as it gets on a Saturday night for a race car driver. The guys have been working really hard on our Fastenal Ford Fusion, and we will go out there and give it all we’ve got. Qualifying is a blast, so hopefully that goes well. There is also the knowledge that we can acquire during the All-Star race and apply to the Coca-Cola 600. We have a lot of fun stuff to work on, no real pressure other than to go win a race, and hopefully it’s a good show.”
