Frontstretch Line of the Week "To be honest, it hasn’t hit me until right now, after qualifying, that I’m racing in NASCAR. I kept telling Natalie, like, ‘I’m in denial. I don’t want to believe it until I know I’m for sure in the race.’ And I think I’m probably gonna have a hard time sleeping tonight." -
