Matt Kenseth on racing at Watkins Glen:
"Of the two road courses that we go to, I seem to prefer Watkins Glen a little. Our road racing program has steadily improved over the last two to three years and we've been finishing better. We finished 11th in Sonoma earlier this year which was our best finish there ever. We have a couple of top tens at Watkins Glen already and we'll be looking to improve upon that on Sunday."
Crew Chief Robbie Reiser on racing at Watkins Glen:
"We tested up at Watkins Glen last week and were able to dial some things in on our car. We've been working on our road racing program and our performance has improved over the last few years. Besides the two races at Pocono, we've been on a good streak this summer with some top-five and top-ten finishes. We're getting our consistency back and that's what this team is all about."
