Martin on racing in the Busch Series at Texas Motor Speedway:
“Texas has always been a really good track for us and we've won two or three races there in the Busch Series. In fact we won the first one there back in 1997 and we are looking forward to going back there this weekend and seeing what we have. Mike Beam and those guys do a great job with the Busch cars and this is the last time we'll be racing the No. 6 Ameriquest Busch car, so hopefully we'll go there and be able to compete for another win.”
