News and notes: The time has finally come. After countless hours of hard work and preparation, Spencer Boyd and his SS Greenlight Racing team are ready to set their sights on the World Center of Racing. The NASCAR Xfinity Series race at Daytona International Speedway will kick off Spencer Boyd’s first full time season in NASCAR.  He will also be competing for Sunoco Rookie of the Year honors in ‘the place where names are made.’ “I’m beyond excited to get down to Daytona,” says Boyd. “It honestly hasn’t been much of an off-season for us. The guys have been going non-stop and I’ve pretty much been at the shop everyday. Anything I can do to help Bobby and the guys prepare for the season, I’m there,” says Boyd. The work has been plenty for everyone, but come Saturday Boyd only has to worry about one thing, going fast for 300 miles.
