Martin on racing in the Busch Series at California Speedway:
“California is one of my favorite tracks. We won the Busch race there last year and we won the truck race there in the spring. We won the Cup race there a few years ago as well, so we've had a lot of success there over the years. We are looking forward to getting back out there in the Busch car and seeing what we can do. Fontana has been a track where he had a lot of success over the years and I think we've been fortunate to win in just about everything that we've raced there. Hopefully we'll be able to go there and continue on with that tradition.”
Crew Chief Mike Beam on racing at California Speedway:
“This is just a great race team to work with. Mark is a great driver and we are excited about going back to California where we had a great run in the truck in February. We had a great run in the truck at Bristol and we finished top five with this Busch car a couple of weeks ago at Michigan, so we are pretty excited about what we have going on right now with this race team.”
