Ty Gibbs, Driver of the No. 54 SiriusXM Toyota Camry XSE:
“I really like Kansas and it’s pretty wide – there are lot of lanes to run. It’s fun to run there. We just need to stay in the game and make sure we execute. Great to have SiriusXM back on the Toyota Camry this week and we had a great run with them on board at Bristol. Hopefully we can have another one.”
