No doubt this speed sets the bar for the rest of the drivers and has built a great deal of excitement and momentum for the Morton Motorsports team. "I said we would be the one's to watch and after this week there is no doubt we can take the lead for 2008 at the first national competition" said Glen Morton co-owner. |
