Hornaday’s thoughts on Indianapolis Raceway Park: 
“I get excited when we go to IRP  because it is a track that I feel very 
comfortable on and it is one of my  favorite tracks. I know that I should run well 
every time that I am there.  Racing on the short track is a lot of  fun and I 
love the aggressive style that it takes to get around other cars on  the 
track. The kind of aggressive driving that will take place this weekend is  the 
kind of racing that reminds me of the earlier days in my career. When I used  to 
run at Saugus Speedway, you had to make your own holes to pass, and that is  
the style of driving that got me to where I am today.�?? 
Ron Hornaday about driving the #32  WINFUEL Chevy: 
“I am looking forward  to getting back behind the wheel of the #32 WINFUEL 
Chevy this weekend,  especially since we are racing at IRP. The WINFUEL team has 
given me fast,  competitive cars each of the three times that I’ve driven for 
them this season,  but we seem to have had our share of bad luck. Hopefully 
this weekend we can put  it all together and take the WINFUEL Chevy to Victory  
Lane.�??
