DRIVER QUOTE
“I was forced to sit on the side lines and watch last years GRC in Vegas because of a shoulder injury. It looked like such a fun event and the course layout seems even better this year. I'm excited that it coincides with SEMA again this year. I’m looking forward to putting on a great show and getting my Dodge Dart to the top of the box. It's been a tough year, it’s very important that I finish the season strong.
--Travis Pastrana, No. 199 Red Bull / Discount Tire Dodge Dart

QUOTE OF THE WEEK
Everyone at Pastrana Racing is trying to make our Dodge Darts awesome for the GRC race in Las Vegas this week. I’m trying to do a better job driving the car. Making it to the Main Event and getting some good results in the last race of the year is key for this team. We’re never going to give up.  Both our Dodge Darts have been fast. We’ll be ready to go.  
-- Bryce Menzies, No. 99 Red Bull / Discount Tire Dodge Dart
