Jeff Burton on racing at Watkins Glen International:
“Watkins Glen has been a good track for us the last couple years. We’re taking the same car we took to Sonoma and we’ve been testing a couple times to try and work on some things so I think we will run well there. We had a solid run earlier this year at Infineon so I feel confident that our road course program is heading in the right direction. I look forward to getting out there and seeing what we can make happen this Sunday."
Crew Chief Bob Osborne on racing at Watkins Glen International:
“We are taking the same car we took to Sonoma earlier this year. The No. 99 team has seen lots of improvement over the last several weeks and we're hoping to continue that at Watkins Glen this weekend. We had a good run in Sonoma finishing in the top 10 so I know we have a car that can win this coming weekend."
