On Darlington Raceway: “Darlington is one of the coolest, most challenging tracks we go to. I’ve always felt like I get around there pretty well, but Racing a truck there will be a new challenge.   “We’ve had a pretty solid few weeks as a team, and we’re hoping to just keep building on this momentum!”
