Sterling Marlin Quotes:

Comment on the new soft walls at Kansas

“I am glad to hear they will be adding soft walls to Kansas. I just wish they had been there two years ago when I hit the wall. I am glad to see that NASCAR and the tracks are making the necessary changes to ensure the safety of all the drivers.”
