From the Driver’s Seat:
Erik Jones: “Atlanta has been a good track for us in the past and I think we’ll have a good race this weekend in Atlanta. The track is old, worn out and slick and that makes for good racing. We’ve run well the last few weeks, but don’t have the finishes to show for it. I think Atlanta is a place where we can turn that around and get back on the right track.”
TIL NEXT TIME, I AM STILL WORKING ON MY REDNECK!
