ES: Dover: Craig Goess preview

Goess Heads to the Monster Mile for the Sunoco 150

DENVER, N.C. (September 17, 2008) -- Eddie Sharp Racing's Craig Goess and his Greenville Toyota team hit the Monster Mile this weekend for the Sunoco 150. This weekend will be Goess' first visit to the 1.0-mile concrete oval.

"It's hard to believe that the season is almost over," said Goess. "I think we will do really well this weekend at Dover. My guys worked hard this week to turn the Greenville Toyota Camry around after Loudon. We had good momentum going into New Hampshire and stumbled a little there. I'm confident we'll get it back this weekend at the Monster Mile."

Last weekend Goess qualified 12th at New Hampshire Motor Speedway. Goess wheeled the No. 2 Greenville Toyota Camry to a 13th-place finish in the Heluva Good! Fall 125.

"We were definitely lucky to get 13th," commented Goess. "I was decent in qualifying, but in race trim, it just was off. We just struggled on the flat track. I'm looking forward to heading to Dover this week and running on a track with more banking."
