From the Cockpit:

Harrison Burton: “I’m ready to get back after it this weekend in Darlington with my DEX Imaging team. We have a cool throwback scheme that honors my dad and I’m really looking forward to seeing it on the track. It’s really cool to have a partner in DEX Imaging that supports me on and off the racetrack and I can’t thank them enough for being involved in this special weekend. Darlington is such a special place, and it’s really cool to be able to race there. I know (Crew Chief) Jason (Ratcliff) and the guys have worked extremely hard to bring me a fast Toyota Supra. I’m looking forward to the race on Saturday and hopefully visiting the iconic victory lane in Darlington.

TIL NEXT TIME, I AM STILL WORKING ON MY REDNECK!
