Scott Wimmer Quotes:
“I always enjoy going to Pocono. I always seem to have really good race cars up there. I almost had a couple top ten’s the last few times I’ve been there.
It’s a real unique track in that every corner is a little bit different and with the long front straight-a-way and the two shorter ones down the back stretch. It definitely makes for an interesting race. It’s really important to have a good pit strategy and have a good handling race car.
I’m looking forward to going back there. It’s really nice to go up in that area and see all the race fans and we usually put on a real good race there. Hopefully, we can get ourselves a good finish up there and keep inching ourselves toward the top 35 in points.”
