KASEY KAHNE QUOTES:
“This is a fun race. No points. It is four 20-lap sprint races. It’s all-out racing with one goal – the win. I like that. The No. 9 Dodge Dealers/UAW Dodge team is ready. The crew will go all out on Wednesday night (Nextel Pit Crew Challenge) to get us a good pit selection. They will also play a key role in qualifying and the race because of the mandatory pit stops.”
