John Wes Townley on racing at Talladega Superspeedway: "I can't wait to get to Talladega. I always enjoy running the big tracks, and Talladega is the largest one of them all.  As an 18-year old driver, my drafting experience at a track like Talladega is very limited. But I'll be running Friday's ARCA race at Talladega, so that will give me a good idea on what to expect in Saturday's NASCAR Camping World Truck Series race.

"I'll try to get in formation with my Roush Fenway Racing teammates, Erik Darnell and Colin Braun, and learn from them while trying to get the Zaxby's Ford F-150 toward the front of the field."

Crew chief Chad Norris on racing at Talladega Superspeedway:  "We've got a good truck for this weekend.  It's the same one Colin (Braun) raced at Daytona in February.  I'm glad John Wes is running the ARCA race on Friday so he'll have some additional experience drafting.  Talladega is a pretty intense race, so any extra experience a driver can get is a bonus."
