SCOTT RIGGS QUOTES:
“I can’t wait to get back to Busch Series action with the Ultimate Chargers team this weekend. I know the guys had a great test session with Kasey driving this Wisk Dodge in Las Vegas, now I get to be behind the wheel at one of my favorite tracks, California Speedway. I won the Busch race at California once in 2002 and I think this No. 9 team is every bit as strong. I look forward to working with the new team director Mike Shiplett for the first time and the new Wisk pit crew. I know they didn’t get an opportunity to make their first pit stop in Daytona, so hopefully this will be their opportunity to go ahead and get their hands dirty.”
