Matt Kenseth's Thoughts on Miami
"I have always enjoyed competing at Homestead. It's nice to race in a warm climate in November. We've been real good there in a Busch Series car excep t last year we were involved in an accident on the first lap. I have never been to Miami in a Winston Cup car, so that may be interesting. Last weeken d was a disappointment being involved in an accident so early in the race. I am ready to have a good race weekend and bring the DEWALT Ford home with a top ten finish."
