McMurray on racing at California Speedway:
“They tell me that California Speedway is statistically my best track on the circuit, but you can’t always go
on statistics. I don’t know what it is about this speedway, but it’s one that I really enjoy coming to.
California Speedway is more of a driver’s track where you as the driver can really dictate your speeds by
which line you choose on the race track. Sometimes the high line works better and as the track changes, it
could move to the middle or bottom groove, just depending on how your car seems to handle. That’s really
what makes California a fun track to race on.”
Crew Chief Drew Blickensderfer on racing at California Speedway:
“California is a special track for me. I got my first career win there in this race last year with Matt Kenseth
so I’m excited to get back there. CitiFinancial is with us this weekend for the first time and we want to give
them a strong finish. I’m excited to have Jamie McMurray in the car and I think overall it should be a great
weekend.”
