KEVIN HAMLIN QUOTES:

What are your thoughts on racing for Randy MacDonald this weekend?

“I am excited to get back to racing this weekend at Bristol.  It has been a couple of years since I have raced there, but anytime I can race on a short track I get pretty excited.  Things in this business change fast and for the past three weeks I have been spotting for John Andretti on Sundays.  However, this weekend I will be behind the wheel of the D.H. Griffin machine for MacDonald Motorsports.  We have two goods runs with MacDonald Motorsports last year at Dover and California and I hope we can build on that success this year and bring home a solid top-15 finish.  I appreciate all the hard work from the guys at the shop and the opportunity Randy has given me.”
