Martin on racing at Daytona International Speedway:
“We are pretty excited about this year's Speedweeks. We are going to be really busy this year with the Daytona 500, Bud Shootout and the Truck and IROC races. It's a lot of racing and that's what we are going there to do and it should give us a great chance to hopefully pick up a couple of more trophies.

"We are also really excited about kicking off our new relationship with AAA as the primary on the No. 6 car and it should be exciting to debut the all new Ford Fusion as well. The AAA Ford Fusion looks really good and I can't wait to get it out on the track and hopefully we can take it to victory lane real soon. We've been coming to Daytona a long time and we'd like nothing better than to take the No. 6 AAA Ford Fusion to victory lane in the biggest race of the season."

Crew Chief Pat Tryson on racing at Daytona International Speedway:
“We had a pretty good test session at Daytona in January and we are excited about going back down to Daytona and seeing what we can do. We've been pretty good at Daytona the last few years and we had a really good run in the 500 last year, so hopefully we can build on that and help give Mark a win in his last Daytona 500. We are excited to have AAA on board this season as the sponsor and hopefully we'll be taking that AAA Ford Fusion to winner's circle a lot this year.”
