Anthony Kumpen Quotes:
“To race at Daytona is a dream for every NASCAR driver. It is a very special track, and for a European NASCAR driver, it is even more special. I’m proud and happy that we can be there. It all started thanks to the NASCAR Whelen Euro Series and I am grateful for this. I want to thank everybody involved from sponsors to NASCAR. I am the first NASCAR Whelen Euro Series driver to go to Daytona and I hope this will be an inspiration for young drivers to join the NWES..”
Mark Setzer Quotes:
“We have worked really hard during the offseason to prepare a great car for Daytona this year. We ran really well at Daytona and Talladega last year and have improved our cars, engines, and team since then. I am looking forward to working with Anthony again as well, in his superspeedway debut.”
