LIA QUOTES:

ON GOING TO PHOENIX: "I really enjoy running on the flat one-milers.  I have a lot of experience at Loudon, New Hampshire and I think that will help me some at Phoenix.  With the chemistry and communication between myself and Eric Philips getting better every week and my experience on the short flat tracks, I feel we can go to Phoenix and get ourselves no less than a good solid top-10 finish."

OWNER QUOTES:

CO-OWNER DAVID DOLLAR: "We are in the final stretch of our first season as Randy Moss Motorsports and it has been a good year.  We have a lot of positive momentum right now and the team has really come together with Donny driving in these last handful of races.  Donny really does well on the flat tracks and we expect to have a great finish this weekend. We are looking forward to finishing the season and taking the momentum we've built over the last several weeks into the 2009 season."
