Brett Moffitt Quoteboard:
On Martinsville Speedway: “I am looking forward to returning to Martinsville Speedway this weekend and the opportunity to build on our team’s top-10 finish in the spring. Martinsville is definitely a track about rhythm and finesse.
“Martinsville is also a fun race track if you can keep up with the handling and handle the (race) traffic.
“Joe (Williams Jr., crew chief) has a good notebook, and we look to build on that during practice and qualifying and hope that we can execute over 250 laps on Saturday afternoon and deliver our 10th top-10 finish in the penultimate race of the Xfinity Series season.”
On The 2023 Season: “It is hard to believe that just two races are left in the Xfinity Series season. I’d love to close it out with a pair of top-10 finishes with our AM Racing team.
”We have showcased speed the last couple of weeks, just suffered a lot of bad luck. Hopefully, that bad luck is over, and we’ll put us back in the top-10 on Saturday afternoon, where we know we belong.
“I am ready to end the year on a high note!”
