Jimmy Phelps Quotes:

ON RACING AT MOHAWK INTERNATIONAL RACEWAY - "This will be the first time that the majority of us have raced at Mohawk. I don't think anyone, other than maybe a handful of guys, have seen the new configuration of the track. It's virtually brand new because they reconstructed it last year. Any time we go into unchartered territory, it is kind of interesting to see which way the car goes."
