TY DILLON QUOTES:
This weekend’s 200-lap NASCAR Nationwide Series event will mark your fourth start in the Series this season. What are your thoughts heading into the weekend?
“Dover International Speedway is a lot of fun to race. I’m lucky enough to be able to race in both the NASCAR Camping World Truck and Nationwide Series races this weekend. I competed in both events last year, and it gave me a lot of added experience. I’ll head back there this year with a little extra confidence and hopefully get the job done.”
