Stefan Wilson Practice 4 quote:
“It was a really productive day, we got a lot of track time. We made a lot of changes, I feel like we found some that were good, some that were bad. At the end of the day I feel like the Driven2SaveLives No. 25 was running pretty good and it’s probably the most comfortable I’ve felt all month. I’m really excited to come back tomorrow for Fast Friday with the extra boost and see what it’s like there.”
