Charlie Wilson Quotes:
“Michigan is a multi-groove track that requires a good driver and a truck with a lot of horsepower. It is fairly easy to pass and is always full of great racing.
“This is a great racetrack for Kevin, Michigan is a big, fast track, and that’s what he likes. This is the race that all the manufacturers want to win because of Detroit -- it’s a matter of bragging rights.”
Kevin Harvick Quote:
“I think everybody loves Michigan because you can race from the bottom of the race track to the top of the race track. Tires wear out and everything changes as you go through a fuel run. So it’s a lot of fun for the drivers to go there and race and move your truck around, and make adjustments as things change.”
