AAA 400 | October 3, 2015

Catching Some Concrete…Michael Annett and his No. 46 Pilot Flying J Chevrolet take to the Dover International Speedway for the second time during the 2015 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series season this Sunday. The high-banked, concrete mile track was a welcome venue for the Des Moines, Iowa driver during his tenure in NASCAR’s Xfinity Series.

Annett’s History at Dover…Dover served as one of Annett’s strongest tracks during his climb to the Cup Series. He finished third there in a 2012 Xfinity Series race. In 10 career Xfinity Series starts at Dover, he finished 15th or better eight times.

Michael Annett on Dover International Speedway:
“Dover is a really fast mile-long track, concrete with lots of rubber buildup during the race. Track position will be the key to having a good day, because it’s so hard to come by there. That’ll be our focus this weekend.”
