Jason Leffler’s thoughts on  New Hampshire International Speedway: 
"I am really looking forward to going back to New Hampshire, especially  
after finishing third there last year in the Busch Series race. Loudon is a  fast, 
flat track where you need a good handling car that allows you to get into  a 
rhythm and click off laps until the end of the race. The WINFUEL/Braun Racing  
guys have been working hard during the week to prepare the car, and at the 
track  they have been working to adjust the #32 Chevy to my driving style. 
Between  their equipment and my past success, I feel like we have everything 
necessary to  win this weekend.�?? 
Leffler about driving the #32  WINFUEL Chevy last weekend at Chicagoland 
Speedway: 
“It was really  disappointing to have such a great car and to not be able to 
be there at the end  to compete for the win. The WINFUEL guys gave me one of 
the best cars that I  have ever driven, but unfortunately we had to come to pit 
road for an  unscheduled stop close to the end of the race and that trapped 
us a lap down. At  the time that we got the flat tire, we were running third 
and had already made  our last pit stop, which put us in perfect position to 
compete for the win. I’m  sure that the WINFUEL team will bring another fast car 
to New Hampshire, and  hopefully this time we can produce at top finish like 
the #32 car is capable of  each week.�??
