Fast Facts - Dover
Fast Facts: -Braun continues to lead in the Raybestos Rookie standings. He still has an eight-point lead over second-place driver Donny Lia. -Braun moved up to 15th in the overall driver point standings, and is only 88 points out of 10th place. Braun on racing at Dover: "I've never raced at Dover but I've seen it on television a lot. I watched the Cup and truck races from Dover last year to get a feel for the race. It will be important to stay out of trouble and keep the truck pointed straight. I learned in Mansfield last weekend that if you can stay out of the wrecks then you'll probably have a pretty decent finish. I'm excited to do some real racing at Dover this weekend, unlike what we had at Mansfield with 80 laps of caution. A place like Dover requires a fast truck so I'm hoping we can flex our muscle a bit on Friday." Crew chief Mike Beam on racing at Dover: "Colin has been doing a great job this season, and although Dover is probably one of the toughest tracks he's going to face as a rookie, I think he'll be fine. It will be my job to keep him calm and patient. It's a tough track and you can get into trouble pretty quickly there, so between me and Bobby (Hudson, spotter) we can't let him be too aggressive too early in the race." |
