Cindric at Daytona “I’m excited to be back in the No. 60 this weekend. Daytona hasn’t been my friend in a stock car, but I have had some good runs there in other series. I’m hoping to change that this weekend and complete all the laps and be in contention at the end. Roush Fenway always has good Superpseedway cars so I’m excited to get to the track and see what we can do this weekend in our Odyssey Batteries Ford Mustang.”
