Ragan on racing at California Speedway:
“I’m really looking forward to going out to California this weekend, running in the top 15, finishing every lap, learning a lot and just have a good race. Everyone at Roush Racing has worked real hard to give the rookies some seat time in different series and this is a great opportunity for me to race in the Busch series with a great team. At the same time, I’ve got a lot of respect for Danny O’Quinn. He is a good friend of mine and a good driver and I know he will be anxious to get back in his car in Richmond. I have never competed at Fontana, but I think running the truck race at Michigan or even Texas or Charlotte, these high speed tracks, will help me out.”
Crew Chief Drew Blickensderfer on racing at California Speedway:
“We plan on taking David Ragan with us to California and we will be running the car we took to Michigan. Hopefully we will be able to get him his first Busch Series top 10. We found some things at Michigan and our teammates ran well there, so we plan on seeing the FreeCreditReport.com car at the front.”
