Scott Wimmer Quotes:
“I’m excited after not running the road course out in Sonoma to be getting back behind the wheel for Watkins Glen. The car ran really good out there [Infineon] with PJ in it and I have a lot of confidence in the car going back to Watkins Glen. We had a good finish last weekend and hopefully we can gain some more points at The Glen and keep chipping away at the top 35.”
