KASEY KAHNE QUOTES:
“We’ve had some real good finishes in the past few Busch races. I think it’s a testament to all the hard work that Shiplett and the guys have been putting into our Busch program. Each week we’re unloading competitive race cars and continuing to improve on their handling throughout the race weekend. I think this weekend at Chicago will be no different.
“Chicago is another intermediate track and we’ve had a lot of success on those types of tracks in the past couple of years. I always look forward to climbing behind the wheel of the Ragu Dodge Charger in the Busch Series and I’m hoping to get some good information that we can transfer to the Cup side and help get our Cup program back to the level we’re used to.”
