Jeff Burton on racing at Texas Motor Speedway:
“Texas obviously holds a lot of memories for me. It's a fast track with a lot of grip. We tested there a week ago and had good results. We have not run as well there the last couple of years so we're hoping to turn that around this weekend. We've had good cars the last couple weekends and unfortunately last Sunday at Bristol we wrecked so we didn't have a good result. Bob (Osborne, crew chief) and the guys have been working hard and I know we have the ability to have a good showing at Texas."
