SCOTT RIGGS QUOTES:
“Our car was really strong at Phoenix in the spring. We started 24th, came up through the field and ran the top-10 for a while. The car was fast. We’re bringing the same chassis we had at that race, so I’m looking forward to a good weekend and driving another fast Stanley Tools/Valvoline Dodge Charger. Rodney [Childers] and the whole Valvoline/Stanley Tools team does a great job setting-up these cars so I’m looking forward to the weekend.”
