When you go into a new market, you have to have either the right people, who are knowledgeable about the region, or the right relationships. You either hire those people or acquire a local builder. And you have to have sufficient scale. Otherwise, the risk is not worth it.
More Quotes from Alex Barron:
The biggest thing was traveling around with the team. It was a little different than this level. It was more family-oriented. It was a smaller group, and everybody was always looking out for one another. At this level, it doesn't happen that way. There are so many people and so much turnover, it's different than a steppingstone like that. That's what made that step so genuine not only were we winning, but we were all really tight together.Alex Barron
Horton has been achieving double-digit growth in every single region even though all the smaller builders have seen more mixed results with some regions up and some regions down. So I would say Horton is more the anomaly than the rule.

I'm really looking forward to my first Daytona 24 hour race. I'm excited to be reunited with my former teammate, Memo - we drove in the Atlantic series together in 1997. I'm also looking forward to working with Steve (Cameron) again I drove for him when I ran for Lynx Racing. This team won the last race of the season last year and I feel that they're definitely capable of winning the Rolex 24.

Once we went green, the car handled beautifully. We were flat out until the end. We showed some really good speed.

It was excellent, ... We had a great car all weekend. We made a good change there on the second stop. The car was solid and we were able to hang onto third. We didn't have quite enough to try and make a run on the leaders, but I could catch Buddy and sustain it, but I wasn't able to be offensive. I'm really happy with the podium (top three). It's our first podium of the season. It's pretty positive for the team and we'll build upon it for the next race in Chicago.

I just think the dates didn't work out for the IRL coming here in the middle of the season like that, ... The schedule didn't play out properly for the series. I'm glad to see they want to come back here. It's a great event, and we always have a lot of people who come out and watch the race. It's getting stronger every year.
