TRAVIS KVAPIL ON HOMESTEAD-MIAMI SPEEDWAY. . . “Homestead is a really great track, especially since they reconfigured it a few years back. It’s a special place to me, it’s where I clinched the truck series championship back in 2003. You can run three and four wide there, there’s so much room to move around. It’s probably one of the best tracks as far as putting on a show for the fans.”
MIKE BEAM ON HOMESTEAD-MIAMI SPEEDWAY. . . “We’ve really had a tough end of the season. It seems like things just aren’t going our way at all. This is our last race with Travis, and we’d like to end our relationship on a positive note. We had a strong race at Homestead last year with Mark Martin, it would be great to have the same success this time around.”
