Stenhouse Jr. on racing at Indianapolis:

“I always enjoy going back to Indy since I didn’t live too far from the speedway for about a year when I raced Sprint Cars. Last year we earned our best career finish there so hopefully we can do the same this weekend. For us since we are locked in the playoffs, we can gamble a little and try to earn some stage points. Our cars have performed better at every track we have been to this year so I expect the same this weekend. If we can execute on pit-road and maintain our track position then we should be able to leave Indy with a solid finish.”
