Green has something to prove at Milwaukee Mile

Eddyville, Ky. – Mark Green will attempt to qualify the #23 Vassarette Chevrolet for the ninth consecutive week in Milwaukee, Wis. on Saturday.

Green, who set a track record during qualifying in 1997, has always enjoyed the track but hasn’t run as well as he thought he should each time he’s been.

“I don’t know if you can call it bad luck or not, but we always seem to be shaking our head a little every time we leave there,” Green said. “It’s a fun track and I’ve always qualified well there but for some reason we just haven’t been able to put it together on race day – yet.”

Green will be running the car that he used to finish 22nd in the Funai 250.

“It was a good car then, but we had some trouble with the brakes,” he said. “The guys in the shop have made several adjustments and it should be better this time around.”

The race begins at 8:05 p.m. central time on Saturday and will air on FX. It will be preceded by qualifying on Speed at 5:05 p.m.
