Eric McClure, driver of the No. 0 Hefty® Chevrolet quotes:
“Kansas is a typical cookie-cutter place, almost identical to Chicagoland. We didn’t run well at Chicago, and this is my first time at Kansas, so we’ll have our work cut out for us. The mile-and-a-half and two-mile tracks have been tough for us this year, but hopefully we can get the No. 0 car qualified into the race.”
