Richmond (Va.) Raceway | ToyotaCare 250 Race Recap: In the most recent NASCAR Xfinity Series race at Richmond (Va.) Raceway, Brett Moffitt and the AM Racing team tackled the legendary Virginia short track for the first and only time this season.
Mother Nature wreaked havoc with the NASCAR Xfinity Series teams on Saturday morning soaking the .075-mile short track washing out practice and qualifying and setting the starting lineup per the rule books and previous race metrics.
Starting 24th in his No. 25 AM Technical Solutions Ford Mustang, Moffitt made steady progress throughout the afternoon despite being plagued with the lack of grip that hindered his ability to rotate better through the corners.
A late-race restart set Moffitt up to contend for another top-10 finish in NASCAR Xfinity Series competition this season, but Moffitt was spun out by another competitor.
The Grimes, Ia. native did a masterful job to avoid suffering any damage in the spin, however, the hard application of the brake pedal deteriorated the tire which Moffitt was forced to finish the race on.
At the checkered flag, Moffitt did manage to cling onto the lead lap but finished 22nd in the 38-car field.
In seven races this season, Moffit has delivered two top-10s, three top-15s and an average finish of 19.3.
From the Pit Box: Industry veteran Joe Williams is Brett Moffit’s crew chief.
He will be crew chief for his 106th NASCAR Xfinity Series race on Saturday night and his sixth race at Martinsville Speedway.
In his previous 105 NASCAR Xfinity Series starts, he has collected one win (Auto Club Speedway | February 2022), seven top-five and 23 top-10 finishes.

Brett Moffitt Quoteboard:
On Martinsville Speedway: “We are headed to Martinsville Speedway this weekend looking for a short track revival. Our AM Racing team wasn’t very good in the most recent race at Richmond Raceway, but we have taken the first off week to evaluate some things and feel like we will head to Martinsville and be competitive.
Overall, Martinsville has not been too bad of a track for me, other than a mechanical issue in my most recent start in the spring race a year ago. Martinsville is a fun race track if you can keep up with the handling and handle the (race) traffic.
“We are focused on a rebound finish after a tough outing at Richmond and putting our No. 25 AM Technical Solutions Ford Mustang back inside the top-10, where we feel like we belong.”
On The 2023 Season: “There has been so much effort put into the 2023 NASCAR Xfinity Series season and honestly, I am so excited about it. I cannot thank everyone on the AM Racing team enough for the opportunity and for taking a chance on me to lead them in the inaugural year.
“I feel like in the first three months or so we have definitely proved ourselves in the series, but we realize there is more work to be done.
“I believe we will exceed everyone’s expectations and not only will we challenge for race wins, but we will earn them and contend for the 2023 Xfinity Series championship.”
