Jack Harvey, No. 60 AutoNation / SiriusXM Honda:

“Today we were trying to get our race car in a bit of a better place and we made improvements from where we were yesterday. I felt more comfortable with our times today and our no tow times were pretty quick. It’s a nice feeling to come here and be trending in a positive direction.”
