Richard Coburn
QUOTABLE: “We’re coming off of a dream season in 2012, but you can never predict what will happen, each year offers something differ- ent. We’ve revamped our equipment, and we’re coming back with the same crew that worked for us last year. Around the shop, we’ve got the same attitude, and we’ve got the same objectives as last year.”

radic appearances have been the norm over the past several seasons, and Graham did not make an appearance on the NCATS tour at all last year.
QUOTABLE: “Everything was ready to go, so we decided to enter the first couple races of the season. We’ll see what we have left after that, everything hinges on those early results whether we continue or not.”

Richard Coburn
QUOTABLE: “I will be trying to run the full season, all depending on sponsorship, so I’m not looking too far into the future. My mindset this year is to ‘go for it’ and leave nothing on the track. I need to get a win before too long.”
