TIM GEORGE JR. QUOTES: Give us a recap of Iowa. "Iowa was a good weekend for RCR. My ARCA teammate, Ty Dillon, captured the pole and Truck teammate Austin Dillon earned the pole and then went on to win on Sunday. I ran competitively as well. Going out first for qualifying is tough, but leading a lap in the race was good. We backed up a bit at the end, but all in all it was a good points weekend." What are your thoughts on Mansfield? "I'm excited to get back to a short track. We rolled off the truck pretty fast at the last two, and I'm looking forward to a good finish on a short track. We have been competitive recently and need to hold that intensity till the end of the race. Mansfield hosts some exciting races for the fans and I'm looking forward to being part of the show."
