SCOTT RIGGS QUOTES:
“Dover is a track that I really enjoy driving. It is a place you can really attack, hard on the gas then hard on the brakes. The COT has changed that somewhat, the most important thing is getting this Avenger to rotate in the center of the turns and not be tight. This weekend we will be looking to have a solid run in the No. 10 Valvoline/Stanley Tools Avenger. The last two weeks we have had cut tires that have held us back from good finishes.”
