On the Car
Fastenal is currently in its seventh season as a primary partner in the MENCS for Roush Fenway. They spent three years on the No. 99 before jumping over to the No. 17 entry, and were the primary partner on the No. 60 Xfinity team that captured the owner’s championship in 2011.
Stenhouse Jr. on racing at Dover:
“Dover is a unique, challenging track just by the way you drive up out of the corners. We led some laps there in the spring and thought we had a top-10 car so I’m looking forward to this weekend. Qualifying is really important because track position is key. We struggled last weekend so we are looking to rebound this weekend and have a solid finish.”
