Love’s Travel Stops and Martin Transportation Systems Return with McDowell at Michigan

Love’s Travel Stops Partner Ready to Power McDowell to New Best at Track

MOORESVILLE, N.C. (August 18, 2021) – Love’s Travel Stops partner, Martin Transportation Systems (MTS), will carry the primary colors on the No. 34 Ford Mustang at the Michigan International Speedway this weekend.

Martin Transportation Systems, is a family owned and operated transportation and logistics company with a fleet of over 1,100 trucks and employs over 2,500 drivers and support staff. MTS provides dedicated just in time “JIT” services to its customers with a dedication to safety, customer service, and technology. The company is headquartered in Byron Center, Michigan and is a loyal Love’s Travel Stops customer.

Michael McDowell is ready to make headlines with MTS by getting his first top-10 at the fast, banked two-mile oval located just west of Detroit. McDowell has 14 previous starts at the track with a best finish of 22nd. But, with his success this past season, he knows Sunday is an opportunity for a best result.

“Historically, we’ve struggled at Michigan, but I’m more optimistic now than ever before going into Sunday,” said McDowell. “The package, and just us improving as a race team, we can finish in the top-10 or top-15 and really get a good result. Right now, we’re looking to have that good finish. We raced well in Indy, but disappointed in not getting the result. I think Sunday, we’ll have a good MTS/Love’s Travel Stops Ford and can get the finish that we all want.”

Sunday’s race will be televised live on NBCSN at 3:00 p.m. ET.
