“Texas is one of my favorite tracks,” said Gragson. “I’ve made a lot of great memories there over the years, and with the momentum this No. 4 team has right now, I feel confident we’ll add to that this weekend. Texas really pushes your racecraft—it’s a tough track. You’re wide open from the exit of Turn 2 all the way through Turns 3 and 4, and the surface is usually hot and slick. It’s easy to get out of the groove and spin in Turns 1 and 2, so you’ve got to be sharp from the start.”
