Matt Kenseth on racing in the Nationwide Series at Darlington Raceway:
“I’m looking forward to seeing what the track feels like now. I liked the old Darlington a lot, we always ran well there. I think it will be the same Darlington, just faster and smoother. It should make for a great race. The CitiFinancial Ford Fusion should be good. We’re taking the same car we won at Atlanta with earlier this year. Last weekend didn’t go as planned so I’m excited to turn things around and get a strong finish for CitiFinancial.”

Crew Chief Drew Blickensderfer on racing in the Nationwide Series at Darlington Raceway:
“This weekend should be good for us. Matt’s record at Darlington speaks for itself and I don’t think he’ll have any trouble adapting to the new surface. We were wrecked here last year and didn’t get the finish we deserved. Hopefully this weekend will go better for us and we’ll get CitiFinancial their first win of the year.”
