Basha's Supermarkets 200 Preview - Ricky Stenhouse Jr.

Stenhouse, Jr. on racing at Phoenix International Raceway:

“I love racing at Phoenix. It is a fun track to race at. We have not finished outside the top five in our four starts there.  We were so close in Daytona to being in victory lane so we are looking to rebound and get this No. 6 Ford Mustang in victory lane for the first time in 2012.“

Crew chief Mike Kelley on racing at Phoenix International Raceway:

“We are bringing the same chassis that we finished fifth with last November. Ricky has had a lot of success at Phoenix and we are looking to bring the same set-up that we brought there last fall. After racing on the new surface in the fall last year, we have a better understanding of how the car will handle. If we execute on pit-road, I am confident that we can get this No. 6 Mustang in Victory Lane.”
