David Stremme on driving at Kansas Speedway

"I am looking forward to this weekend's race. Kansas City is one of the coolest spots on the NASCAR Cup Series schedule. The facility is built for the fans. It gives them an up-close look at what we do every weekend with the Fan Zone. They can watch the guys go through technical inspection and keep them really close to the action. The race fans in Kansas are great and passionate about NASCAR. I know [crew chief] Roy [McCauley] and all the guys on the Penske Dodge have been working hard on our mile-and-a-half program. We have made significant gains this season and I am looking forward to this weekend."

Crew chief Roy McCauley on racing at Kansas Speedway

"Kansas Speedway is an impressive facility. It is great for both the competitors as well as the fans. There is a lot of side-by-side racing, which is fun to watch. David [Stremme] really enjoys going to the mile-and-a-half tracks. We have had some really strong runs this year at these kinds of facilities so our Penske Dodge team is optimistic about a productive weekend."
