What are your expectations for the first NCWTS race at Chicagoland?
"We had the Nationwide race won there back in 2001, but a late caution came out for debris and Jimmie Johnson put four fresh tires on
and we wound up second. I've run pretty well there in a Cup car, but I've had some really bad crashes with right front tires blowing there,
too. I think it's pretty cool that we're taking the Camping World Trucks to Chicagoland this year. Hopefully, it will be a great race for the
fans."
TODD BODINE, No. 30 Ventrilo Toyota Tundra, Germain Racing
What are your expectations for the first NCWTS race at Chicagoland?
"For the inaugural NASCAR race in the Cup Series, I got the pole at Chicagoland, so I like the track. I've always enjoyed it. Germain
Racing's No. 30 Ventrilo Tundra team has done a lot of testing at Chicagoland. We've run really well. We ought to be able to unload our
Tundra and be competitive. Chicago is a great town. I'm definitely looking forward to racing at the track again."
