Cindric on Michigan “Michigan is a pretty important weekend for me. Definitely from a points perspective, but also in who supports me. LTi Printing is on the car and also the race sponsor, plus Jack Roush and Ford both have a lot of history at Michigan. I’ve got a lot of reasons to have a good run. The 60 team has had some bad luck and I’m really motivated to get these guys a clean solid day. Hopefully I can carry some of the momentum from our Pocono run over into Michigan and have a little fun.”
