From the Cockpit:
Carl Edwards: “Phoenix is going to be a lot of fun. I love racing there and for us it’s one last week to just go have some fun, hopefully get another trophy and prepare for Homestead. Texas was the biggest win of our season and coming off of that we are really looking forward to going to Phoenix and just focus on getting another win. Phoenix is a special track for me. It’s the first place I ever raced on pavement. A lot of great runs there and a lot of wins. Very close race in the spring. That last lap was a blast. We’ll go there and have some fun. It’s a one mile tough track. Really takes communication between the driver and crew chief. Dave Rogers and I have been working on that a lot. Excited to get there and go racing.”
From the Pit Box:
Dave Rogers: “That past two weeks has been an incredible journey for our No.19 JGR Toyota team. We were on the outside looking in after Martinsville, but secured our spot in NASCAR’s championship round by winning in Texas. The Texas win permits us to go to Phoenix pressure free, but the goal for Phoenix remains the same – capture another win. We look to improve on our spring performance by a few feet. “
