Talk about going to Las Vegas this weekend…

“I’m ready to go to a track where we spread out a little bit. Hopefully our Sport Clips Camry shines this weekend. I feel like we’ve kind of lost a little bit of our mojo at Las Vegas from what we had. We were really on a run there at that track for a couple years, but at the last playoff race, we weren’t as good. I’m excited to get back there with the new Camry and see where we stack up now that we are going to a non-drafting track for the first time with this car.”
