SCOTT RIGGS QUOTES:
“We had a strong run at Texas Motor Speedway in the spring. The Valvoline/Stanley Tools Dodge finished seventh but on the long runs we had a car that was capable of running top five or leading. We are bringing back the same chassis for this Texas race as well. There is a different paint scheme this weekend as we are promoting the release of Disney’s ‘Cars’ movie on DVD. This whole Valvoline Evernham Racing crew has been working hard recently to improve our results and finish the year out strong. We will be focused on bringing home a top finish this weekend to help.”
