Quotes:
Jamie McMurray:
"I’m looking forward to getting back in the Yard-Man Ford and working with (Crew Chief) Newt (Moore) and the Brewco guys again. In the past, I’ve really enjoyed running at Texas. It has been a good track for me in the Busch Series, despite some problems, like an engine failure in 2005 after I had led a bunch of laps. If we unload well and learn as much as we can in the practice sessions, I know we can finish well this weekend and bring home a strong finish for Yard-Man on Saturday.”
Crew Chief Newt Moore:
"We had two solid finishes at Texas last year – a ninth place finish in the spring and an 11th place finish in the fall, so we’re looking for good things to come on Saturday. We’ve been strong all year in 2007 at every track we’ve been to so far, but we’re just not getting the finishes to reflect that. We’ll head into Texas this weekend with a renewed resolve to get the finish for our sponsor Yard-Man that we know we’re capable of.”
