Kentucky Up Next…The 1.5-mile Kentucky Speedway is the next stop on the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series circuit. Michael Annett will wheel his No. 46 Pilot Flying J Chevrolet this weekend, returning to a facility that provided him with a top-20 finish last season.

Annett Likes Blue Grass…In seven career NASCAR Xfinity Series starts at Kentucky, Annett averaged a 12.4-place finish, scoring five top-10 finishes with a best result of fourth coming in 2012.

Michael Annett on Kentucky Speedway:
“I’ve had some good runs at Kentucky, with a bunch of top-10 finishes in the Xfinity. Series It’s a really fun place to race. We’re going there early for a test day, so the schedule will give us a lot of time to acclimate to the new rules package and get our car set up how we’d like it.”
