Sprague On Dover:

“I really think this Wyler Racing team is primed to have a good run at Dover International Speedway this weekend. I love racing at Dover – there’s a wide racing groove, so there is plenty of room to pass, unlike last week. I almost won a NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series race at Dover in 2001, and I came close to winning in the Busch car twice. With this No. 60 Con-way Freight Toyota team coming off of a runner-up finish at Mansfield, I feel confident that it’s our turn to celebrate in Victory Lane.”

Career at Dover International Speedway:

Sprague has four career starts at Dover International Speedway in the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series – one of which was a runner-up finish. He has eight Busch and Nextel Cup Series starts combined at the Monster Mile.

Sprague On the Wyler Racing Team:

 “Every week I continue to be impressed by this Wyler Racing Team and the No. 60 Con-way Freight Toyota. I really didn’t think we had that good of a truck last week at Mansfield, but we put together a good race and a good finish and that was what we needed. This team works hard to put a truck that is capable of winning under me every week. Unfortunately, we have had some bad luck, but I feel that with each race we are getting closer to winning. It’s only a matter of time before we are celebrating our first win as a team and with our sponsor, Con-way. I really think our trip is going to be sooner rather than later.

“For years, I’ve had a little personal competition with (Ron) Hornaday. We’re good friends, and we always try to outdo the other. I have three championships, he has two. I have 25 all-time wins, and last weekend at Mansfield, he moved up to 28 all-time wins. I want to get this No. 60 Con-way Freight Toyota into Victory Lane more than ever to even up the score.”
