I like racing at Dover (International Speedway). It is such a unique track. Now that the Nationwide Series does not race at Nashville Superspeedway, it is the only concrete track other than Bristol Motor Speedway. Dover has a lot of banking, and a lot of G-forces, and we seem to run well there. I’m excited to get up to Dover and try to put the OneMain Financial Chevrolet in Victory Lane.
I’m very excited to get my first start in the Nationwide Series at Dover in the South Point Hotel & Casino Chevrolet ... It’s going to be a lot of fun running with my brother Austin (Dillon) and Elliott (Sadler). The RCR Nationwide Series teams have done a great job so far this season, and I know I’ll learn a lot from them. The No. 33 team and Ernie Cope(crew chief) have built a great team, and I’m honored to be able to work with them this weekend.
Ty has shown a lot of progress so far this season in the Camping World Truck Series and he’s definitely earned the opportunity to make his NASCAR Nationwide Series debut. He’ll be in very good hands with Ernie Cope (crew chief) and the No. 33 Chevrolet team ... South Point Hotel & Casino has quickly become a great partner with RCR and we appreciate their decision to expand their overall program with backing Ty in this once-in-a-career opportunity.More quotes »
