Reed on Las Vegas
“I love heading out west and I’m looking forward to the next three races on the west coast. I have a love-hate relationship with Vegas, but we had speed in our car last weekend in Atlanta, but just didn’t get it handling how we needed during the race. I think we can build on that and go get a good finish this weekend in Vegas.”
