"This will be the first time I've ever been to Iowa Speedway and I'm looking forward to it. I obviously watched the Nationwide race to see how that all transpired and to get a look at the race track for the first time. It looks like a neat race track; a lot like Richmond. I feel confident that we can go there and run good. We've ran really well the last 10 weeks, so every time that we go to a venue now we're pretty excited. We unload on the right side of the time sheets and we're usually in the top-five or top-10 in practice. We expect the same at Iowa."
