Driver Quote: Alex Tagliani
“After leaving Toronto with a top-ten finish, Team Barracuda – BHA is proud of what we accomplished. We’re a very competitive team and the No. 98 car is fast. I think everybody on the team is very motivated. With four consecutive road courses coming up, we feel that we can be very strong.
“As we head into Edmonton, our qualifying position from Toronto will help for pit selection and we don’t have any penalties to overcome. I’m confident that we’ll be able to run strong in qualifying and close the deal. I know that we’re not missing what it takes to make it happen this year and hopefully we can do it in Edmonton.”
