FRM Race Preview – Phoenix

Michael McDowell on Phoenix
16 Starts
Best Finish: 16th
“I’m excited to go to Phoenix with this package. It will be the first race for a short-track package, so it will be interesting to see what happens. I haven’t been able to test there, so I’m not really sure what to expect, but it’s Phoenix, it’s my hometown race and I always look forward to that.”

Matt Tifft on Phoenix
(Xfinity Series) 4 Starts | 1 Top-5 | 2 Top-10
Best Finish: 3rd
“Phoenix was a great track for me last year and we came up just short of getting a win there in the Xfinity Series. I feel like this is a great weekend to get some momentum going in the right direction for our team, especially because last week was rough, but we still saw potential during parts of the race. I’m looking forward to hitting the track in our No. 36 Tunity/Surface Sunscreen Mustang.”

David Ragan on Phoenix
24 Starts | 1 Top-10
Best Finish: 10th
“I’m really looking forward to going to Phoenix. Phoenix kind of races like a short-track and I think that the new downforce package is going to make for an exciting race. So again, this will be another racetrack that’s unique to start the schedule off with and I can’t wait to see all of our friends from Select Blinds as well.”
