S&S Racing at Toledo:

Driver, Butch Miller

* "I've been going to the Toledo Racetrack for more than 20 years. I've won ASA races there and Iceman races. We've won a lot there over the years. I'm looking forward to a great race."

* "This is the first time I'll be on the track with the new surface, so it'll be a little faster. But, we have an advantage of knowing the characteristics of that racetrack very well."

Team owner, Ken Smith

* "We're trying to race competitive this weekend and continue our streak of finishing in the top five. Butch was on the pole last year at Toledo, so we think he has a great chance to win."

* "Butch knows Toledo like the back of his hand, so we'll be able to get there and set the car up very quickly. We've got to concentrate on getting the car set-up to his expectations."

Racing with Experience:

Driver, Butch Miller

* "Deaun is possibly the best crew chief in the ASA. No matter how stupid my ideas sound, he listens and he tries them. We try his ideas and figure out what works best."

* "In order for a race team to be successful it's got to run like a well-oiled machine. Ken Smith understands that. He's got a great crew chief in place, the right chassis and hopefully the right driver. That makes it a little easier."

Team Owner, Ken Smith

* "We take a lot of credence in Butch's knowledge at Toledo. He communicates well with Deaun, who also has a lot of experience at the track, so we're expecting good things there."

* "We feel that if we can get the car to Butch's liking, he'll drive it hard and upfront. That's our goal with him. When you're dealing with a less experienced driver, you're always trying to get on the same page. But when we listen to Butch, he has the potential to dominate a race."

Momentum of Team:

Team Owner, Ken Smith

* "When you go out and win three races out of six, it's actually putting more pressure on the team. We want to push ourselves to do better."

* "Winning is fun. There's no doubt about it."

* "We've proven we can win. Now, we're proving our consistency."
