SCOTT RIGGS QUOTES:
“Last week at Dover was a step in the right direction toward the top 35 cutoff. It is our goal this weekend to make another step forward. Rodney and the guys have made some significant progress on addressing the handling with this new Dodge Charger nose and I feel confident we will have a good car heading into this weekend’s race. We finished in the top 10 with the Valvoline/Stanley Tools Dodge in this race last year at Pocono and we will be looking to improve on that result this weekend.”
