Larry Foyt on Richmond:
"Racing at Richmond is always exciting because it's under the lights and the action is intense. They've really done a great job with the track surface, because it has several racing grooves.
"Getting the car to handle well in the turns is key to having a good race here. The racing is close-quarters, so you have to be patient with passing."
