    Eric McClure quotes:

    We are looking forward to getting back to Kentucky.  It’s a critical time in the season for us and historically Kentucky hasn’t been very good to me, but we are hopeful to see an improvement this time around.  Although our results don’t reflect it, three out of the last four events has been some of our best on-track runs since Las Vegas and we are hopeful it will continue here in Kentucky.
