Ryan’s Remark... on Darlington
“I love racing at Darlington, it is by far my favorite track to drive. I’m excited about running the Busch race there. We had a good car there last year, but we had a fuel pump issue and just couldn’t fix it. These guys have done a good job giving me some great race cars in the Busch Series this year and I know we’ll have another good car this weekend, too.”
