Quotes:
Scott Wimmer on his first race for Yard-Man:
“I’m really excited, not only to be with Brewco Motorsports but to have a great sponsor like Yard-Man. It’s really exciting. I sat up on the box last weekend at Talladega with Newt Moore. Just to be with this team is really exciting for me. I don’t think Yard-Man has been to victory lane yet so hopefully I can be the one to get them there. Newt and I have only raced together twice and these additional races are going to be really big in helping us work even better together.”
Scott Wimmer on Richmond International Raceway:
“Richmond is one of those race tracks that is a favorite for the drivers and the fans. It’s a short track but it has two grooves to pass and it’s just a place that everyone enjoys going to. You can pass, you can run high and low and the races are really exciting.”
