JOEY, YOU MUST BE LOOKING FORWARD TO GOING BACK TO NEW HAMPSHIRE MOTOR SPEEDWAY.

If there’s one place to run in that series, it is New Hampshire. There’s so much exposure there. Of all the races that series runs, this was the one we were going to do. It’s going to be a lot of fun.

THIS WILL BE A BUSY WEEKEND FOR YOU, WITH THE TWO-DAY EVENT AT NEW HAMPSHIRE AND AN ACT LATE MODEL TOUR RACE ON SATURDAY.

Yeah, but I’m really looking forward to it. Qualifying’s on Thursday and the race is on Friday, and I’m definitely excited about teaming up with Dave Davis again for that. We earned our best finish there in this exact car. We’re looking forward to that race — and then a busy night Friday night getting back down here (to the shop), loading the Late Model up and then heading to White Mountain (for Saturday’s ACT Late Model Tour race).

It’s going to be a busy week, but we’re going to try and make the best of it.

DOES IT FEEL GOOD TO BE BACK WITH DAVE DAVIS, EVEN IF IT’S JUST FOR ONE RACE?

It’s definitely exciting to team with Dave again. We’ve always liked Dave a lot, and it will be great to go back to Loudon with him.
