10 Questions: Kyle Krisiloff

1. What's the best advice you've ever received and who was it from?

Kyle Krisiloff: Best advice? Wow. I don't know. You get so much but probably when I drove for Rick Hendrick a couple of years, he told me, "Down here, relationships are the most important thing and if you want to be down here for a long time, you need to meet a lot of people and keep them close to you." So that's what I've been trying to do the last couple of years is meet people in this industry that can help me and utilize those friendships.
