Kyle Krisiloff California Quotes:
“I’m excited to get to run at California Speedway. I like those types of tracks. They seem to fit my driving style a little better. I think we’ll be really strong with our No. 15 ditech.com/National Land Liquidations/Krud Kutter Chevrolet Silverado. It will be my first time in a truck at California, but I’m really looking forward to it. I have a learning curve to go through, but Richie Wauters puts together some great trucks. If we can run up front and finish it off with a top-10 finish, I think that would be a great turnaround from Daytona.”
