Reed on Indy

“Indy is such an iconic track, it’s such a cool experience to go there, but it’s a tough track to race around. If you are in traffic it can be really, really tough. We’ve steadily improved there over the last few years and I hope we can build on that this weekend, especially with the Playoffs just around the corner.”

Reed currently sits 10th in the NASCAR Xfinity Series standings with two races remaining before the Playoffs.
