JAMIE MCMURRAY QUOTES:

"I'm really looking forward to getting to Rockingham," McMurray said.
"Rockingham has always been one of my favorite tracks. It's a track where
the driver really gets to drive the car and it's where setup and handling
are key."

"Tire management is also key at Rockingham," McMurray added. "The track is
abrasive and you have to be able to run consistent lap times over a long
green-flag run."

"It also feels good to be able to come back to a track where you have been
successful," McMurray said. "I was able to win the Busch race last fall in
Rockingham and hopefully we can put the Havoline Dodge in victory lane this
weekend too."
