Scott Wimmer Quotes:
“Dover is one of my favorite tracks. It’s where I got my first Busch Series win and I got a top 10 in Cup so I’m anxious to go back. It’s been a good track for me through the years – it’s real fast. The track seems to widen out during the race. Sometimes you can run two and even three wide through the corner. It’s just a great race track, one of those places where you really have to have a good handling car. Being concrete, you have to have a good setup in the car and it’s very sensitive to any adjustments you make. Dover is just a great race track for us to go to.”
