Driver Scott Lagasse Jr. on the Last Race at Kansas Speedway:

“Seeing as though it was only our second race together as a team; I think things went pretty well. The team made a lot of adjustments during practice to help us find that balance between my driving style and the configuration of the race track. We ended up turning a really good lap in qualifying (14th) and that momentum carried over into the race. Todd (crew chief) and I worked together throughout the race and we ended up bringing the America’s Incredible Pizza Company Chevrolet home in one piece and had a solid finish.”

Driver Scott Lagasse Jr. on Lowe’s Motor Speedway:

“We’re going to take what we learned at Kansas a couple weeks ago and apply it at Lowe’s this weekend. We’re bringing the same car and we know what we’re up against. I’ve raced there a couple times so there is a sort of comfort level heading into Lowe’s and I’m hoping we’ll be able to bring home a great finish for the America’s Incredible Pizza Company.”
