Q-Having two races under your belt this season as a Truck Series owner, how do you see your season going so far?
A-“I’ve been happy with the way our team has come together. Rick Ren (director of competition) has done a really good job, as have the crew chiefs, Dan Stillman and Eric Phillips. We’ve built some really good trucks and everyone’s working very hard. We were competitive at Atlanta and ran second, and Tayler ran very well and finished 13th. He keeps learning and getting better and absorbing knowledge from the people around him. Toyota has been a huge asset for us. We’d like to get some sponsorship. We’ve had a lot of phone calls; a lot of people are interested. Just, unfortunately, we haven’t had things go down the way we would have liked to get some sponsorship on these trucks to make sure everything is funded for the whole season. We’re going to run the whole season, regardless.”
Q-What’s the long-term goal for Kyle Busch Motorsports?
A-“I think the long-term goal of the company is to build a successful organization in the Truck Series. From there, whether we open up into a Nationwide team or a Cup team, eventually, down the road, remains to be seen. That’s something that certainly could be a possibility. It all comes down to sponsorship. We all know how tough that is, now, in the economic times we’re in. We’re looking to try to make this into something that is prosperous and can go on for a long time.”(Kyle Busch Motorsports PR)(3-24-2010)
