McMurray on racing at Pocono Raceway:
“I like Pocono. It’s wide open and with the right car and set up, I think we just may have something for the rest of them. Roush Racing won both Pocono races last year. I want the Irwin Industrial Tools team to continue that success.”
Crew Chief Bob Osborne on racing at Pocono Raceway:
“We used RK-322 at the Coca-Cola 600 in May – we had a lot of success with that Fusion, finishing in 8th place. I really like Pocono, especially with bringing Jack his first ever victory at Pocono with Carl last year. I think we have a good momentum going into this week’s race with Jamie and the Irwin Industrial Tools Ford Fusion.”
