QUOTE WORTHY
Wallace on racing at Texas:
“It’ll be interesting to see how Texas is this weekend with the repave. I’m really looking forward to getting there after having a week off. I’m confident that we can unload with the same speed that we’ve had these last few weeks and have another really good run on Saturday with our Leidos Mustang.”
