RYAN BLANEY, No. 12 Menards/Richmond The Water Heater Experts Ford Fusion -- CAN YOU TALK ABOUT THE SEASON SO FAR? “It’s been a good year for our team. I think Ford, in general, obvious has a ton of speed. It’s nice to be in that camp. We’d like to get a win on the Penske side. When Ford is winning it’s helping everybody. We’re really close. We just need to close that little bit of a gap to beat the best cars out there. We’re getting there. I thought we had potential in first practice today. We’ll see where we’ll qualify. Yeah, this a fun race track. It’s aging well. It seems to be winding out a little bit more. I think that will be even better in the race. It’s just a matter of time and the tire dragging deal. We’ll see what we have for ‘em on Sunday. Hopefully we’ll be competitive and have a shot.”
