CONCORD, N.C. -- Dave Blaney on competing in this weekend's Coca Cola 600:
"This is one of my favorite races," said Blaney. "It's really exciting because it's raced under the lights in front of a sold out crowd. For a racer, it's even better because it is such a long race that you can overcome a lot of things before the end of 600 miles. We should have a really strong car after a decent run in the Open (Blaney sat on the pole for the Open and led laps before succumbing to a tight racecar) and a real good test a couple weeks ago.
"I think we'll be able to prove again that we are worthy of having a full-time sponsor in this series. We've run a race a month and the plan is to continue that until we can secure a full-time deal. The races where we hadn't been taken out, we've run no worse than 15th. I think if we can put a package together to run the whole schedule that we would be running better than that. But, our goal is to go there this weekend and run like we've been running and get ourselves another good finish."
