Matt Kenseth's Thoughts on California
"I am looking forward to racing at California Speedway. It has been a real good track for me and it's one of the nicest facilities we race at. After the last few weeks (Martinsville and Talladega) I'm ready for a big track we can race on without a restrictor plate. These are my favorite types of tracks. "
