Connor Mosack Quote
You’ve had some success at Homestead-Miami already, including a third-place finish with Spire Motorsports. What have you learned from your previous starts?
“I love racing at Homestead. Almost the whole track is usable. There’s a lot of tire falloff, and running the high line well is very rewarding. My experience has taught me to keep an open mind on where the optimum line is. It used to always be up high by the wall, but the last couple of years the bottom and middle have been really strong, as well. I think having a versatile truck and taking care of our tires will be keys to a successful day.”
